Giving hope to those near him
Stands tall in a crowd

And master of some too
To exceed your potential
He inspires you
A son to his parents
And in laws too
A father to his daughters
Their cousins love him too
A husband who cares
And a brother too
Men like him

The greatest gift from God I ever had
I gift you a promise
