Man Of His Word
Remembering all the dad's that lived up to this song, esp the daddy of my children. We didn't have him long but we had more in the short time we had him than many people have in a life time. We were truly blessed.
Man of His Word recorded by Bob Carlisle In the final days of summer, 1944, with just a preacher and a witness and a humble band of gold, They set out to find the future, not a penny to their name. Still with all the unknown danger, she knew her heart was safe, cause... He was a rock He was the one that she ran to And when he said the word "forever" She knew that it was true He wasn't a saint But he was saint enough for her He was a man, A man of his word The final days of summer, 1964, Found a family undivided, divided on the war. Turning son against his elder, debating wrong and right, He was the image of his father, though they would not see eye to eye still... He was a rock He was the one the boy ran to Cause' when he said the words "I love you" He knew that it was true And even in the worst of storms There was an anchor in his world He was a man, a man of his word Clutching a strong belief in the Bible, through all the sweetness in his life, and the bitterness of war, He knew what God had made him for.... In the final days of summer, 1994, surrounded by his family, and the presence of the Lord, He set out to find his future, the one he'd always known, He didn't want to leave his family, but he knew deep in his soul, The Lord had called him home. Cause... He was a rock He was the One the man ran to And when he said the word "forever" He knew that it was true He wasn't a saint He is the One the saints bow to Receiving a man, A man of his word... He is the One that I run to Cause when He says the word "forever" I know His word is true He isn't a saint He is the One the saints bow to Come to the Man The Man of His word
