The Houck Girls ~ 2009 ~ Cathy, Jane, Mary, and Ruth
A Love Without End
In Memory of Dad
09-24-22 - 09-26-09
A childhood filled with magical
days
Sisters more like best friends
Secrets told in bedrooms shared
A father's love without end
King on the hill on the cellar
doors
Hide and seek by the buttonwood
tree
Clinging to the rope on a tire
swing
Like an eagle we would soar
Sitting beside the rock of my
life
The man with the work worn hands
Sharing a hymnal and learning to
sing
The wonderful songs of Beulah
Land
Breaking the rules and breaking
a heart
The heart of the man who adored
His wife and daughters and only
son
And most of all his Lord
Always a home to return to
No matter the mistakes we made
Unconditional love in every way
A love that will never fade
The home no longer stands
The man has crossed to the other
side
But the memories live forever in
minds
And his unconditional love will
never die
It’s a lonely world without our
dad
But we smile through the tears
in our eyes
Someday we'll join with the dad
we adore
In our Heavenly home in the
skies
