Story Behind The Song

Just wanted to make the connection between my loving my kids, and God loving His kids.

Song Description

God and family... that was the focus. It also has some charming views of ones children.

Lyrics

I was lookin at my boy who was not yet two
Shufflin' cross the floor in his daddy's shoes and I thought
"How many times they've felt too big for your daddy too" ....

Ah but every morning I put 'em on... to walk across the day
Ah but when that day is finally done, I'll take 'em off and put 'em away.

You know it's worth it to see your momma's face, worth it when she smiles .... for she can have no less than the very best when her family is by her side.

Then there's my little girl with her dolls and games....
Who's quite grown up since turning five she claims...
One minute she's asleep with her kitty ...
The next she's got mom's lipstick all over her face

Ah you know she's prettier every day,
One day she'll have a family of her own...
She'll walk with her man so straight and true
She will never be alone.

It will be worth it just to see her face,
Worth it when she smiles
For she can have no less than the very best
When her family is by her side.

INTERLUDE

When my dad died I found a card that he'd written to me....
On my birthday when I was seventeen
The words were pure and simple but they said it all to me
"You've only got one life to live my son, "
"Make sure you make it a good one"
"I will" I sighed as the tears filled my eyes
"By God's grace, father I will"

It will be worth it to see my saviours face
Worth it when He smiles
For I can have no less than the very best
When God's family is by my side.
It will be worth it to see our saviours face
Worth it when He smiles
For we can have no less than the very best
When God's family is by our side
