Faith
When Faith was smaller,
she had a treasure
Made just for little girls
Though made of plastic,
she loved to wear them
Her own strand of shiny pearls
Faith had a father, kind and gentle
How he loved his little girl
One night at bedtime he asked her
Will you give me your pearls
Oh no, not my pearls, Faith said
How about my teddy instead
And he said, your Daddy loves you –
it's okay
And with a kiss, he tucked in, his little
Faith
As Faith grew, now and then he'd ask her
To give him her precious pearls

And though she loved him
she couldn't give up
Her favorite thing in this world
Until one night, she said through her tears
Daddy, these are for you
As she let go of her little treasure
He was crying too
As he took her worn, plastic pearls
Around her neck he placed
A beautiful strand of genuine pearls
He had saved just for his sweet Faith
For all this world may have in store
He waits with so much more
Your Father loves you, it's okay
To let go of what you hold with Faith
