From the recording A Man Of Quiet Strength
Dedicated to man going thru toughest health crisis....and how he & those around him are trying to help regain the physical strength he once had...
Lyrics
MAN OF QUIET STRENGTH
HE NEVER SAID NO TO A REQUEST FOR HELP, HE WOULD ALWAYS BE THERE NEVER THINKING OF HIMESELF HE WAS STRICT WITH HIS KIDS BUT THEY ALWAYS CAME FIRST HE DIDN'T SPEAK PERFECT ENGLISH SOMETIMES HE'D CURSE
HE HAD A QUIET STRENGTH HE HELD IN RESERVE HE FEARED NO MAN AND HAD A
LOT OF NERVE HE HAD A QUIET STRENGTH AND WAS FIRST TO GIVE ADVICE HE WAS SHORT ON PRAISE BUT WOULD SOMETIMES SAY DAT'S NICE
HE WAS A MAN OF QUIET STRENGTH UNSELFISH AND GENEROUS FOR A TOUCH NOW THAT HIS PHYSICAL STRENGTH IS WEAKENING I WORRRY ABOUT HIM SO MUCH
I PRAY THAT GOD WILL GIVE HIM A LITTLE MORE TIME...I KNOW I'VE BEEN BLESSED THAT HIS LOVE WAS MINE
BUT IF HE SHOULD DIE AND SLIP AWAY TONITE I KNOW HE'LL ALWAYS BE THERE WITH HIS QUIET MIGHT
YES WHEN I LOOK UP AT THE STARS SHINING IN THE NITE HE'LL GUIDE ME TO HEAVEN AND SHOW ME HIS LIGHT
