listening to this song every night since I buried my father a couple of weeks ago...so powerful & honest...this ones for you dad...miss you everyday...will cherish the memories & pass on your wisdom & teachings to your grandkids...to not see you, hear your voice, your laughter & to not feel your comfort & warmth, is what ill miss for the rest of my life...fathers day will be so hard without you here...bt I will honor you forever...you are now doing the lords work, & you are now reunited with all your siblings as you were the last of them to walk through heavens gates...dont worry bout us, i will carry on with you in my heart...i will look at the stars every night, the brightest one will let me know that your watchin over me...until Its my time to walk into the kingdom of heaven, i will do the work here for mum & our aiga...until then, ill see you there dear father...love always & forever dad...from your broken hearted eternally loving son, martin & fanau xoxo

Brought tears to my eyes this one... You gotta warn or put a disclaimer that it will make us cry but that's not your fault lol. Mainly for those men in case wifey walks into room and they're in tears 😂😂

[MikeLaudie]

What a beautiful song! There's something about your simple melodies, your inspiring lyrics, and the incredible harmonies you and your "brothers" make that truly invites the spirit and an opportunity to truly reflect. Happy Father's Day, and thank you so much for sharing!

Amanaki My Father My Hero:

Verse:
Heavenly Father, I thank thee for my dad.
He’s given me, all that he’s ever had.
He provides shelter, and safety for our
home, he’s there for me, even when I am
far from home.

[Chorus]

-My father, my hero, my friend you’ll
always be, I want to live with you
eternally

[Verse]
-Dear Lord I know, at times my dad
Is down, and when he is, please lift
him to higher ground
Bless him to know I need and love him so
and in my life he’s my friend and my hero

[Chorus]
-(Maile) my father, my hero, my friend
you’ll always be. I want to live with you
eternally!

Verse:
This is my prayer for dad so dear to me,
I’m so proud of him, so grateful God sent
him to me,
Bless him to know, I need and love him so.
And in my life, he’s my friend and my hero,
And in my life, he’s my friend and my hero

I love this song because I'm a proud Mormon member of the LDS church and brings me alot of good memories with my grandad who was a humble man strong member of the church and am indeed proud to born and raised in the gospel my grandad had passed away on the 24/11/2011 3 days after my birthday died of a Heart attack while travelling to come and visit us down south of New Zealand capital city Wellington this song will always bring good memories to me and to also my own father whom I hardly see much as he has his own little family living in Australia Brisbane but he to is also a strong member of the church...
