My Hero's Light

(Soft, slow talking drum roll)

Yeah, daddy, this for you

Even though you gone, I feel you here

My hero, my guide, my everything

I look at the sky and I call your name

Nothing in this life will ever be the same

You taught me to stand when the world was cold

Your heart was a story that never grew old

You held my hand through the darkest night

Showing me how to walk in the light

Oh, my hero, my father, my king

You gave me the song that my heart will sing

Your love was a fortress, your words were my shield

Now I surrender to the pain that I feel

Rest now, dear father, your work is all done

In my memories, you shine like the sun

I remember the laughter, the sound of your voice

Always teaching me I had a choice

To be kind, to be humble, to stand for the truth

You were the anchor throughout my youth

No one can fill the space that you left

Even in silence, I feel your depth

Oh, my hero, my father, my king

You gave me the song that my heart will sing

Your love was a fortress, your words were my shield

Now I surrender to the pain that I feel

Rest now, dear father, your work is all done

In my memories, you shine like the sun

Though you are gone to a better place

I still long to see your smiling face

But I know you're watching, I know you're near

Calming my spirit and drying my tear

Oh, my hero, my father, my king

You gave me the song that my heart will sing

Your love was a fortress, your words were my shield

Now I surrender to the pain that I feel

Rest now, dear father, your work is all done

In my memories, you shine like the sun

Shine like the sun, my hero

Rest well, Daddy

Until we meet again

(Fade out with soft talking drum and guitar hum)
