To Father

Jaime Lynn Brigham

Lord and framer, married and just,
Ever shining in my world,
On thy throne of loving trust,
Set as like the oyster's pearl:
Daughter searches for thy love,
Father like the gentle dove.

Light, let no darkened shadow
Allow to dull your splender.
Faeder's might is to let us know
We are safe when he closes the door.
Keep us 'til we go above,
Father like the gentle dove.

Stay thy hammer in our sight,
And thy gun for hunting dinner.
Stay at home with us tonight
'Til morn, still far away.
Thy love doth warm us like a glove,
Father like the gentle dove.
