Ode to my father, of whom I love very much

Ode to my father, of whom I love very much
This song is dedicated to my father, Steve Lenaghan

There lived a man in Ontario, Canada, named Steve Lenaghan
Of whom I considered to be a loyal and loving friend
This friend is my father, without him I wouldn't have existed
Between my mother, Gertrude and him, I'm glad they made the risk,
Of having my sisters, step-brother and me, the rest is history.

My father is a likable person, makes friends wherever he goes
From my childhood to now, love for him shall continually grow
I have watched him become matured into a person who is wise
A wise man that grew up and always made whatever right.
May God continue to bless Steve in his adventures forever.

Steve Lenaghan, gave me away at my wonderful wedding.
He was there and had rejoiced when Bob gave me my ring.
My ring that told the world that I had finally married,
To a wonderful and kind man, now and till death do us part.
My father, Steve, is so proud of my husband, thank you, Jesus.

You know, my father, Steve, was born to help to give us life.
I am so grateful, now let our father live without strife,
Dear Lord, please be with my father, now and forever
May Jesus always be with my father and forsake him never.
I know that Steve will go home to the Lord, Oh Hallelujah, Amen.

Steve Lenaghan, may his name be remembered forever
God bless Steve's soul and be with him, now and forever.
For it is God's wish to love my father, Steve Lenaghan.
May our family stick together and help our fellow man
And to our family, the fellow man is our father, Steve Lenaghan

Amen, again, I say, amen
May God continue to bless Steve Lenaghan
Throughout his life and beyond.
May my father live forever in our God's bosom.
I am happy my father, Mr. Steve Lenaghan, is a Christian, too.
