My Daddy Fred, you raised me strong,
You taught me where my heart belongs,
You made me the woman I am today,
With hard work lighting up the way.
You showed me how to stand up tall,
To keep my faith through it all,
And every lesson you gave to me,
Built the person I grew to be.
Pre-Chorus
Back in my teenage years I couldn’t see,
Why you were so protective over me,
But now I know with every step,
You were shielding me from what life kept.
Chorus
My Daddy Fred, you gave me peace,
A home where love would never leave,
Your arms were safety, warm and true,
No matter what, I ran to you.
I can call and tell you anything,
Without fear of what words may bring,
No judgment, only love instead,
That’s the kind of father you’ve always been.
Verse 2
You showed me the love of God so clear,
A faith that still carries me through the years,
You nurtured me when I felt small,
And reminded me I could survive it all.
The sound of your voice still calms my mind,
A rare kind of love that’s hard to find,
And every memory holds a place,
Filled with comfort, warmth, and grace.
Pre-Chorus
The older I get, the more I know,
How much of you in me still shows,
And every day I thank the stars,
For giving me a dad like yours.
Chorus
My Daddy Fred, you gave me peace,
A home where love would never leave,
Your arms were safety, warm and true,
No matter what, I ran to you.
I can call and tell you anything,
Without fear of what words may bring,
No judgment, only love instead,
That’s the kind of father you’ve always been.
Bridge
When I think of time moving on,
It hurts to know the years are gone,
I wish I could keep you here always,
Freeze forever in these days.
Outro
My Daddy Fred, I hope you know,
You’re the reason my heart still grows,
And no matter how old I may be,
I’ll always be your little girl, Daddy.**
