The Lamp and the Light

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a kind of love that quietly stays Through the longest nights, through the hardest days A steady hand when the world feels wrong A gentle voice making weak hearts strong You took me in and gave me a home Showed me I'd never walk alone [Chorus] Through every storm, through every fight You were the lamp, you were the light Family, strength, and amazing grace I see it all when I see your face A healing love that carried me Thank you for the man you've always been [Verse 2] When the weight of it all came crashing down You believed in me when I couldn't be found Your faith was the bridge I crossed to here You held my hand, you calmed my fear And the sound of your laugh, oh it lingers still Tears of joy that it always brings [Chorus] Through every storm, through every fight You were the lamp, you were the light Family, strength, and amazing grace I see it all when I see your face A healing love that carried me Thank you, Daddy, for loving me [Bridge] Not every father is made this way Some are chosen, and some just stay You chose me, and that's the grace [Verse 3] So today I'm singing this for you For the quiet things only fathers do For the jokes that made my whole heart shake For every promise you didn't break I love you, Daddy, more than words can say You're my forever, my safest place [Chorus] Through every storm, through every fight You were the lamp, you were the light Family, strength, and amazing grace I see it all when I see your face [Outro] I love you, Daddy, now and always You're the steady love of all my days
