Verse
Was it in the heart of God above
That I should finally learn to love
at the hands of a little boy
When I thought I could think of only me was
when you came and set me free,
you helped me find my joy


Chorus
Like the song that gives the singer his worth
Like the land that shapes the water
Gentle and wise since the day of your birth
You have been raising a father


Verse
When my patience ran a little thin
Was just the place you would begin to


break then make me new
I was afraid I would let you down.
But when I held you in my arms
I found the strength to carry you


Chorus
Like the song that gives the singer his words
Like the land that shapes the water
Gentle and wise since the day of your birth
You have been raising a father


Bridge
Time reveals the deeper mysteries
when the things I learn from you
in turn you’ll learn from me
For I know that I’m not only raising my own son
But I’m raising a father that one day you will become


Verse
Though I’m not all I would like to be
When I look into your eyes I see
the man I might become
