A song trying to express what I remember about my dad many, many years ago. w/ Larry Hansen on lead guitar
Let's just call it a "Cyber Ministry"!!!!
Story behind the song
I lost my dad due to a bad car accident when I was very, very young and this song is just kind of a tribute to him and what I remember about him.
Lyrics
TENDER AGE OF THREE
©2007 Duane Rod
Just a little boy at the tender age of three
There’s not much I remember, too young I guess
Eyes wide open discovering new things
But never too far from mama’s apron strings
Memories of dad are distant and far
His shotgun, his boots, and his old black car
To this little boy he was ten feet high
A hero for sure in my eyes
It seems like a dream of a lifetime past
Memories fade, but some of them last
Somehow certain things stick in your mind
No matter the years, no matter the time
There’s another day, I’ll never forget
The day they told us dad was gone
There was a head-on, a fatal wreck
Dad and his friend, weren’t coming home
CHORUS
Lord there’s times we won’t understand
We just gotta trust that it’s in Your hand
No matter the hurt, no matter the pain
The sun will shine again, after the rain
I didn’t understand at the tender age of three
But God now I know, now I see……..that (back to chorus)
