THE STRENGTH OF A FATHER’S LOVE “Prayer is the raising of the mind to God. We must always The essence of the father’s role remember this. The actual words matter less.” Is to mirror God’s own heart ― Pope John XXIII And to value instruction in God’s ways With the grace that God imparts

Every father needs God’s wisdom To carry out his role, As the tower of strength and support For each fragile heart he holds

And there’s no greater reward in life For a father to take his place And uphold the values of the Lord With integrity and grace.
