I held you and I saw you and still I could not believe face to face with an angel There staring right back at me Placed in these working man's arms By the hands of the father Oh, mary full of grace, blessed the love Between daddies and daughters tucking you in Reading 'good night moon' every night Then kneelin' down saying our prayers Side by side down on my knees with you I swear I never stood taller oh, mary full Of grace, blessed the love between daddies and daughters And every time I see you now I can't remember nothin' 'Bout anything before more and more I realize Yours was not the only life That began on the day that you were born Bless the angels that brought you and the love Between daddies and daughters You will always reside in my heart's most sacred place Safe from all time and all distance there you will remain The faith you've had in me made me and my faith so much Stronger for the blessings you've brought me And the lessons you've taught me Oh, mary full of grace, blessed the love Between daddies and daughters bless the angels That brought you and the love Between daddies and daughters
