Happy Birthday, Son: A Father's Bible

Lyrics

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Verse 1]
Sunlight through the window pane, another year has flown
Today's your day, my precious son, a man you've truly grown
I’ve watched you walk, I’ve watched you learn, through joy and bitter strife
And now I hand you something worn, a map for your own life

[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Son, this worn leather Bible
Generations etched inside, a truth that's strong and stable
With every note, a whispered prayer, a family's steady hand
May its wisdom guide your way, across this blessed land

[Verse 2]
Your Grandpa marked these brittle pages, with stories of his youth
Your Grandma added tender thoughts, of kindness and of truth
My own hand penned a hopeful line, when you first drew a breath
This book holds more than ink and paper, it whispers life from death

[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Son, this worn leather Bible
Generations etched inside, a truth that's strong and stable
With every note, a whispered prayer, a family's steady hand
May its wisdom guide your way, across this blessed land

[Bridge]
It's not about the leather bound, or paper turning thin
It's about the love within these lines, where our whole story's been
A legacy of spirit, son, passed down from heart to heart
A guiding light when shadows fall, a brand new, hopeful start

[Chorus]
Happy Birthday, Son, this worn leather Bible
Generations etched inside, a truth that's strong and stable
With every note, a whispered prayer, a family's steady hand
May its wisdom guide your way, across this blessed land

[Outro]
So open it, my dearest boy, and feel the stories flow
Happy Birthday, Son, may you always know...
The love that lives inside these pages, as the country road takes you home.
