Story Behind the Song
Written For My Father Who Passed Away October 1st 2000.
Lyrics
O My Father
O My Father, You’ve Gone
Your Way.
From This World, Death Steals
Us All Away.
O How I feel The Pain,
From Sorrow There is
No Refrain;
Until I See You Again…
O My Father, A Full Life You
Did Share,
For All Your Own, You Showed
So Much Care.
O How We Feel The Pain,
From Our Sorrow
There’s No Refrain;
Until We See You Again…
O How We’ll Miss Your Smiling Face,
Your Words Of Wisdom
Just Short Of Grace.
The Firm Grip Of A Tender Hand,
The Warm Heart Of A Loveable Man.
O Father, You’ve Gone Your Way,
Life’s Enemy Took You Away.
Now Your Free
From All Your Pain,
But Our Sorrow Has No Refrain,
Until We See Your Face Again…
To Our Father -James Emery Cates
March/15/1924 – October/1/2000
