Mom Dad is special.

Mom Dad, you are special gift to us.
The first proof of God’s faithfulness we knew.
We never asked for you but God gave you to us.
You are special gift we will always love to have.

Mom Dad, you are skillful artists and we plain papers in your hands.
God expected of you to make out of us beautiful images.
Trace out the hidden virtues in us,
So we may become the Angels, the Champions, and the Eagles He has created us to be.

Mom Dad, you are diligent farmers and we your field.
With you diggers and hoes, you can do great things in us.
You break the fallow areas in us to plant good seeds.
You tirelessly labor to nurture growth in us, you are very special.

Mom Dad, you are a purposeful harvester and we the yield.
You thresh us to do away with chaffs in us.
You sheave us to refine us and bring out the best in us.
You keep awake working to preserve us; you are special and the best.

Mom Dad, you are the first head teacher we knew.
You never fail to discipline us when we faultier.
In love you’ve taught us how to live our lives; what we should do not what we want to do.
You always remind us of who we’re created by God to be: Angels, Champions, and Eagles, you are a gift.
