Papá

I never thought I would feel
So much your departure, dad

Although I knew it would happen
Because of the things that were happening

Seeing you sick in that bed
And your worn-out body

But I thank God, dad
For the life he gave you
And at the end of your journey
With him, you went to rest

I always remember fondly
The days I spent with you

The times you corrected me
Were always for the best
Even though sometimes I didn't understand them

Dad

The seed you planted
To follow Jesus forever

Not only sprouted and grew
But also bore fruit
I see it when I look at my children

I always remember fondly
The days I spent with you

The times you corrected me
Were always for the best
Even though sometimes I didn't understand them

Dad
