To every parent

"To Every Parent"

There are little eyes upon you,

And they are watching night & day;

There are little ears that quickly take

 In every word you say;

There are little hands all eager to do

Everything you do,

And a little child who's dreaming of
The day he'll be like you.

You're the little child's idol ,
You're the wisest of the wise,
In his little mind about you,
No suspicions ever rise;
He believes in you devoutly,
Holds all you say and do;
He will say and do in your way when
 He's grown up to be like you.

There's a wide eyed little child who
Believes you're always right,
And his ears are always open and he
Watches day and night;
You are setting an example
Every day in all you do
For the little child who's waiting
To grow up to be like you.
