Lyrics

Verse

The sun comes up, the coffee's on, another day begins,

Little footsteps down the hallway, and they're running in.

Josiah's got a million dreams, June's got a smile so bright,

And they both know where they're headed when they need a little light.

Pre-chorus

'Cause no matter what the day may bring,

There's one place they can always lean.

Chorus

In Daddy's hands, they're safe and sound,

The strongest love they've ever found.

From scraped-up knees to sleepless nights,

He's there to make it all alright.

James, you're the heart of this little home,

The steady rock we've always known.

And if they ever wonder what a good man's made of,

They'll find the answer in Daddy's hands.

Verse

He built a place out in the yard where memories can grow,

A little house for big imaginations and the love they get to know.

Teaching Josiah how to be kind, showing June she's worth the world,

Giving them a childhood full of moments they'll always hold.

Pre-chorus

And years from now when they look back,

They'll see your love in every track.

Chorus

In Daddy's hands, they're safe and sound,

The strongest love they've ever found.

From scraped-up knees to sleepless nights,

He's there to make it all alright.

James, you're the heart of this little home,

The steady rock we've always known.

And if they ever wonder what a good man's made of,

They'll find the answer in Daddy's hands.

Bridge

One day Josiah will be a man,

And June will spread her wings and fly,

But they'll carry pieces of their dad

In the way they love and live their lives.

Chorus

In Daddy's hands, they learned to stand,

They learned what love and family mean.

James, you've given more than words could say,

More than they'll ever truly see.

But every laugh and every hug,

Every memory yet to come,

Will tell the story of a father's love—

The kind that lasts when the years are gone.

Outro

So this Father's Day we celebrate,

The man we love, our guiding light.

James, to Josiah and little June,

You'll always be their hero in their eyes.
