[Verse 1] Early

morning

sun

rising

on

the

street

I

hear

your

steady

footsteps,

steady

beat

You

taught

me

how

to

stand

when

the

wind

is

blowing

cold

With

stories

of

the

struggle,

and

wisdom

to

behold

I

look

into

the

mirror

and

I

see

your

face

in

mine

I

look

into

the

mirror

and

I

see

your

face

in

mine

A

testament

to

all

the

years,

a

life

so

genuine

You

never

asked

for

glory,

you

never

asked

for

fame

Just

kept

the

fire

burning,

your

son

is

also

well

are

the

light

of

the

earth

one

who

makes

me

see

the

world
