Happy Father’s Day: I’m So Thankful To Have You As My Dad, Robert Martinek!!!!!
(Tribute to Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman)

Original written by Steven Curtis Chapman

Lyrics:

He cuts, & he pastes
Edits my words before they see light of day
With my Mom, Karen, brought me home
His new baby girl
Today, I’m standing here breathing
Because he took on my life’s problems like boulders ~

With his Grandpuppy, he plays
Dad, know your Laika Girl loves you too
You’re the King of your yard
To Archimedes, you nurture
Your care, it shines through
There’s a Mall of America
On the other side of the country
You’re there, delighted
You traded in divorce ministry for the Mayo Clinic’s radiation

Like you, I’ll drop to my knees
And beg you, for me, hang in there, please

I’m so thankful to have you as my Dad,
Robert Martinek!!!!!
You make my best days feel long ~
Your love, it grows
When you say my childhood name of boundy instead of spoon~

(So oh oh, oh oh oh)

To the best Father-Daughter dance
I’ll sing this one acapella
Spinning like Cinderella, the clock’s hands dance
Second to years...going going gone
You taught me this truth:
Our Heavenly Father loves us
He saved us through Jesus, His Son!!!!!

You adore Adam, my white knight
Your blessing, I’ve continually cherished
You want to know when those Easter eggs of mine are going to hatch
Already such a great Grand-Paw with our pups Laika and her sister Newty
But right now, you need the Mayo Clinic’s radiation

Like you, I’ll drop down to my knees
And beg you, for me, hang in there, please

I’m so thankful to have you as my Dad,
Robert Martinek!!!!!
You make my best days feel long ~
Your love, it grows
When you say my childhood name of boundy instead of spoon~

(So oh oh, oh oh oh)

To the best Father-Daughter dance
I’ll sing this one acapella
Spinning like Cinderella, the clock’s hands dance
Seconds turn to years...going going gone
You taught me this truth:
Our Heavenly Father loves us
He saved us through Jesus, His Son~
He saved us through Jesus, His Son~

You’ve never once called me in Rochester dismayed
In God, you trust in His plan
You’re growing while hurting
To help your pain, you’re accompanied by my awesome brother Dan
You tell me the life expectancy guesses say you’re still years away
But without you, I’m hiding in corners, uncontrollably crying

Like you, I’ll drop to my knees
And beg you, for me, hang in there, please

I’m so thankful to have you as my Dad,
Robert Martinek!!!!!
You make my best days feel long~
Your love, it grows
When you say my childhood name of boundy instead of spoon~

(So oh oh, oh oh oh)

To the best Father-Daughter dance
I’ll sing this one acapella
Spinning like Cinderella, the clock’s hands dance
Seconds to years...going going gone
You taught me this truth:
Our Heavenly Father loves us
He saved us through Jesus, His Son
