Father's Table Grace - Lester Flatt/Curly Seckler[00:00:00]

As we sit at the table my family heads bowed low[00:00:18]

My thoughts return to childhood[00:00:25]

And the finest man I know[00:00:28]

He doesn't speak good English he's just a simple man[00:00:31]

But when he's talkin' to the Lord[00:00:37]

Even a little child can understand[00:00:40]

I was young and foolish but the[00:00:46]

Thought still comes to me[00:00:49]

When I told daddy I felt I was[00:00:51]

Old enough to leave[00:00:55]

He sat there at the table and[00:00:57]

I looked him on his face[00:01:00]

But he never spoke another[00:01:02]

Word till he said the table grace[00:01:03]

He said our graceous heavenly[00:01:09]

Father we all gathered here today[00:01:11]

To give these things[00:01:16]

Of blessings so humbly we pray[00:01:17]

My oldest son is leaving and[00:01:22]

I sure he knows what's best[00:01:25]

But just in case would you[00:01:28]

Stand by and help his to stand the test[00:01:29]

Lord he's a little bit neglectful[00:01:34]

About church on Sunday morn[00:01:37]

And when he gets with a wrong[00:01:39]

Crowd would you let to hold his arm[00:01:41]

And if he flies too high would you clip her wings[00:01:46]

But don't let her fall too hard Lord[00:01:52]

I'm sure you can hand the things[00:01:55]

I've tried my best from day to[00:01:59]

Day to teach his right from wrong[00:02:01]

And now he's grown to be a fine young man[00:02:05]

And he always blessed our home[00:02:09]

We pray dear Lord for guidance[00:02:14]

He won't build upon the sand[00:02:16]

And we won't worry half as much[00:02:19]

If we know he's in your hands[00:02:22]

And oh yes Lord it won't be long till[00:02:26]

I'll be coming home don't make mr wait too long[00:02:29]

We pray dear Lord for guidance[00:02:34]

Please cleance us from our sins[00:02:36]

So we can all be together in heaven[00:02:39]

In Jesus name amen[00:02:42]

The table was silent as tears ran down my face[00:02:46]

And from that day on I base[00:02:51]

My life on father's table grace[00:02:53]
