Nothing Like A Father's Love

Nothing Like A Father's Love By: Keith Michael Rau Verse One Daddy wasn't much for talking He let his actions speak Worked ten hours at the sawmill Six hard days a week But on moonlit summer evenings When the day had slipped away He'd pull me close and bow his head And teach his boy to pray Pre-Chorus He'd say, "Son, there'll come a day When I'm not by your side But the Lord will walk beside you And in Him you can abide" Chorus There's nothing like a father's love Steady as the setting sun Pointing you to something greater Than this world can ever give someone And the older that I get The more I'm certain of The greatest thing my daddy gave Was faith born of a Father's love Verse Two Years went by like rivers running And time don't ever slow Before I knew it I had children Of my own to love and hold One night my little boy asked me "How do I know God's there?" And I heard my daddy's voice again Floating through the air Pre-Chorus And the words that meant so much to me Still fit just like a glove Bridge Daddy taught me Jesus loved me Long before I understood How He left His throne in Heaven And gave His life for my good And when I think of Calvary And what He gave for us I see the heart of God revealed In a Father's love Final Chorus There's nothing like a Father's love Steady as the setting sun Pointing you to something greater Than this world can ever give someone And now I tell my children What my daddy told me of That we're saved by grace through Jesus Christ Because of a Father's love ©2026 Keith Michael Rau All Rights Reserved.
