Daddy Dear - Mordechai Ben David

Daddy dear tell me please is it true what they say

In the heavens there’s a cup that gets fuller each day

And I heard that Hashem keeps it close near by

And he fills it with tears each time that we cry?

Zaidy told me daddy dear did he tell you the same?

That when sorrow strikes his people Hashem feels all the pain?

Tell me why does he cry far away in the sky

Tell me why daddy dears are there tears in your eyes?

Little one little one it is true yes it’s true

Zaidy told me years ago and his dad told him too

Fathers cry for the children and Hashem does the same

And we had so yes he feels our pain

Tears of pity from his eyes in his cup sadly flow

One day when it’s full all our troubles will go

We will dance, we will fly, in the sky like a bird

And I cry little son cause I’m touched by your words

One more question daddy dear answer please if you will

Just how deep is this cup tell me when will it fill?

don’t you think it is time

That the sun forever shines don’t you think it is time dear daddy of mine?

Little one it is time I question that too.

So let us ask him together, together me and you

Father dear do you hear our prayers our fear

Will you your eyes ever dry is your cup fill with tears???
