You are the one who held me tight,
Rocked my cradle all through night,
Cuddled me dearly when I was in fright.
Oh Pa, you will always be my shining knight.
When I grew old,
You took me in your fold,
Made me fearless and bold.
Oh Pa, you will always be my hero beloved.
You taught me to think right,
Never to give up without a fight.
Helped me achieve the dizzying height,
Steered my life like a leading light.
Oh Pa, you will always be my shining knight.
My Father Is My Role Model
