4. Father s day
Daddy’s hands were soft & kind
when I was crying
Daddy’s hands were hard
as steel when I’d done wrong,
Daddy’s hands weren’t always gentle,
but I’ve come to understand…
There was always love in Daddy’s hands.
5. A Present From Clod of Earth
Sung by
Bird (Thongchai McIntyre)
*********************************
We all look like a clod of earth,
Fragile, valueless, and meaningless
We are weak like mud flowing along the path
After water running dry, it becomes drought
There is only a power that can hold,
And make us stronger
The power to gather many people together to be a powerful strength,
That can make a large piece land from each single clod of earth
* We all know how much our Father is exhausted
He has never stopped working hard
Since he knows he’s only the power of the land,
To help us continue living our lives as appropriate
If we want to give our Father a present,
Could we all get together?
Being the same piece of land so as to make our Father happy
Without fatigue for any longer (Repeat *)
Doing good things to make our Father happy
Without fatigue as he used to get in the past
