Daddy didn't come home last night,
and he won't be back next year.
There's an empty place at our table now,
and our eyes are wet with tears.

How could I have known what would happen that day,
when our nation's freedom was tried?
A hateful act brought our buildings down,
and innocent people died.

Chorus:
Oh Lord, I miss my Daddy
keep him safe for me
Hold him in Your arms tonight
and Mama will hold me.

When he waved goodbye I never thought
 that's that last of him I'd see
and when he drove away to work that day,
my dad was leaving me.

Oh Lord, I love my Daddy
keep him safe for me
Hold him in Your arms tonight
and Mama will hold me.

Later on he called my mother,
and said his last goodbye.
He told her that he loved her,
and she began to cry.

Though some say daddy's gone,
I know he's right here
watching over all of us,
and we've no need to fear.

Chorus:
 Oh Lord, I miss my Daddy
 keep him safe for me
 Hold him in Your arms tonight
 and Mama will hold me.

Oh Lord, I love my Daddy
 keep him safe for me
 Hold him in Your arms tonight
 and Mama will hold me.
Hold him in Your arms tonight
 and Mama will hold me.

Absolutely beautiful...God bless our country and Kristi...

Wow! This girl is extraordinary. Her family must be very proud. She deserves to be heard! Is there a way we can help that happen for her?
