Steve Miller - Wish You Could Have Known My Dad Lyrics

How do you know when you've met a great man
Doing the best that he can
He ain't in the spotlight just doing what's right
Not bragging or complaining about the good or the bad

Rock of ages at the cross
Sweet hour of prayer
Jesus paid it all
Sung from the heart
As love lifted me
Not just words
Living life like it should be

Some men seek power money and fame
Get caught up in life like it's a game
Well titles mean little in the end
It's the love that's been given that comes back to him

Rock of ages at the cross
Sweet hour of prayer
Jesus paid it all
Sung from the heart
As love lifted me
Not just words
Living life like it should be

Hearts that he touched both family and friends
Kind words that were said or a warm, gentle grin
Just as I am with a voice sweet and strong
Helped some down the aisle, turning from wrong

Rock of ages at the cross
Sweet hour of prayer
Jesus paid it all
Sung from the heart
As love lifted me
Not just words
Living life like it should be
Wish you could have known my dad
