Analysis of I Thank God!



You are one of the best father's in the world,
You chose to give love to a special little girl.
The road may not have been easy, you may have shed a tear,
But Jesus will never forget you so you don't have to fear.

You are a grandfather and a great grandfather too,
If these girls where not in your life, what would you do?
They may not be all you'd like for them to be,
Never doubt, you've said or done something you'll one day see.

I thank God for the love that you have in your heart,
I thank God that your love for them will never depart.
I thank God that you are my third brother,
Believe me, I would never trade you in for another.
