Shalom, Mi Daughter
[Intro] Yeah man... From the day yuh born mi know yuh a blessing. Daddy love yuh forever. This one fi mi daughter... Shalom... [Chorus] Shalom, mi daughter, walk with Jah every day, Shalom, hold yuh head high, never stray. Shalom, yuh worth more than diamonds and gold, Daddy love yuh endlessly, more than words can be told. Shalom, mi daughter, stand firm and be strong, Shalom, don't let this cold world lead yuh wrong. Shalom, let God guide every road yuh trod, Keep yuh heart pure and always trust in God. [Verse 1] From yuh likkle and yuh sleeping inna mi arms, Mi pray protection over yuh from every harm. The world ago show yuh glitter and fame, But character and faith carry much more name. Don't follow crowd when crowd going astray, Sometimes being different is the better way. Daniel stood alone and still Jah make him rise, Truth always shine brighter than disguise. Remember Proverbs thirty-one say, A woman who fear the Lord shall be praised someday. Beauty fade away and charm can disappear, But God's favor stay when yuh walk sincere. Mi daughter, know yuh value and worth, Yuh a princess from the moment of birth. Never let nobody make yuh sell yuh soul, God write greatness inna every goal. [Pre-Chorus] When the pressure come and friends say "follow we", Remember Jah create yuh fi be uniquely free. Stand pon truth, don't bend, don't break, Every righteous step a blessing yuh make. [Chorus] Shalom, mi daughter, walk with Jah every day, Shalom, hold yuh head high, never stray. Shalom, yuh worth more than diamonds and gold, Daddy love yuh endlessly, more than words can be told. Shalom, mi daughter, stand firm and be strong, Shalom, don't let this cold world lead yuh wrong. Shalom, let God guide every road yuh trod, Keep yuh heart pure and always trust in God. [Verse 2] Guard yuh body, daughter, treasure it well, Not every smiling face got good things fi tell. The temple of God is what yuh body be, Protect it with wisdom and dignity. No rush fi impress no boy pon the street, A real king wait until the right time meet. Don't trade forever fi one night thrill, Respect yuhself and keep strong will. Psalm one-one-nine say hide the Word inside, So temptation never become yuh guide. And First Timothy tell yuh walk with grace, Let godly beauty shine upon yuh face. When yuh fall down, get up and pray, God never leave yuh, He make a way. Daddy might not always stand by yuh side, But Jah Almighty forever will guide. [Bridge] Strength and dignity a yuh clothes, Wisdom and kindness wherever yuh go. Many daughters do well, the scripture say, But mi pray yuh excel in every way. Fear of the Lord a the beginning of wisdom, Build yuh life pon the Rock, not a kingdom Built pon sand that wash away, Let Christ be yuh light every day. [Verse 3] Study hard and chase every dream, Things not always easy as dem seem. Work with purpose, work with heart, God got a plan from the very start. Help the needy, show compassion too, Treat every person how Jah treat you. Speak with wisdom, walk with grace, Let God's glory shine through yuh face. And if one day daddy old and grey, Mi still ago smile when mi hear people say, "Shalom a woman of honor and faith, A blessing to many by God's own grace." [Final Chorus] Shalom, mi daughter, walk with Jah every day, Shalom, hold yuh head high, never stray. Shalom, yuh worth more than diamonds and gold, Daddy love yuh endlessly, more than words can be told. Shalom, mi daughter, stand firm and be strong, Shalom, don't let this cold world lead yuh wrong. Shalom, let God guide every road yuh trod, Daddy love yuh forever... and always trust in God. [Outro] To my daughter Shalom... Remember this... "Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord shall be praised." Proverbs 31:30. Daddy loves you. Forever.
