When I Was Young!
When I was young;
I thought you only saw my wrongs,
And burdened me with heavy loads.
But that's kept me on the right road.
An affable man; strong and bold.
Dad! though the gap between us is vast;
I still give a warm hug, from my heart.
when I was young!

When I was young;
You taught me to be forever strong,
And never let my heart be sold.
But ere comes a time, feels so cold,
An honorable man to live as told.
Dad! though I've kept your words at last;
I now need a warm hug, for my heart.
when I was young!

When I was young;
You taught me to sing this song,
Anytime I feel like crying out loud.
"Oh my Gentle, Saviour Lord,
Keep me through in this barren land,
And hold me with thou powerful hand"
Dad! though memories have gone so fast;
This song is still solemnly in my heart.
When I was young!
