| Daddy will you tell me a story |
| 'Bout Your kingdom and Your glory |
| Of that time long ago |
| And all those people You know |
| So well |
|
| You know, Dad, I like the one 'bout the children |
| Who were lost in that wilderness |
| And how they learned to trust You |
| How You guided them to the promised land |
|
| Will You tell me again 'bout that reason |
| For everything You've done |
| Would You call me son |
|
| Daddy tell me 'bout that shepherd boy |
| And how You wouldn't let Your people be destroyed |
| How that giant was slain |
| With faith in Your Name on that day |
|
| I like the part where the boy became king |
| And he taught the people how to praise and sing |
| All those songs about You |
| How You carried them through the dark |
|
| And will You tell me again 'bout that reason |
| For everything You've done |
| Would You call me son |
|
| 'Cause Daddy I long to be |
| Held in Your security |
| Bound in Your loving arms |
| For all time |
|
| And Daddy I want to be |
| By Your side eternally |
| Bound in Your loving arms |
| For all time |
|
| "I know it's gettin' late Dad" |
| "But could you just tell me one more story" |
| "I'd really like to hear the one about the baby Jesus" |
|
| Tell me again 'bout the manger |
| The child that came as a stranger |
| And how He grew up to be |
| The One to set free the world |
|
| Tell me all about the things He did |
| Healing the sick and loving little kids |
| How He died on the cross |
| For the sins of the lost in the world |
|
| Will You tell me again 'bout that reason |
| For everything You've done |
| "Was it for me, Dad" |
| "Is that why You gave Your only Son" |
| "Oh Dad, I love You too" |
|
| Will You tell me again 'bout that reason |
| For everything You've done |
|
| And Daddy I need to be |
| Bound in Your security |
| Held in Your loving arms |
| For all time |
|
| Daddy please tell me a story |
| Forever and ever |
| Forever and ever |
|
