Grace - Words and Music By Fae Wiedenhoeft 26 Feb 2010
For my Father, Richard Wiedenhoeft
Grace
for the patience shown when I was young and questioning
Grace
for the years you worked two jobs to give us things
Grace
for the silent times when you knew I had to walk alone
Grace
for the quiet but gentle love you've shown
Grace
for the garden strong that you built so the birds could sing
Grace
for the times you showed Mom was a star sparkling
Grace
for the times you sang.. cookin' breakfast, oh those Sundays home
Grace
for the quiet and gentle love you've shown
It's not easy to raise a family
Do your best, work hard, accept what will be
Although we never dwelt on sentimental times or greeting card lines, you see
I knew you always loved me
Grace
for the family trips, pack the car, and enjoy the ride
Grace
for the times we laugh along that rocky mountainside
Grace
for the sideways smile that your jokes so often know
And Grace
for the quiet and gentle love you've shown
It's not easy to raise a family
Do your best, work hard, accept what can be
Although we never dwelt on sentimental times
or greeting card lines, you see
I knew you always loved me
Oh you loved me!
And I love you too!
