A Beautiful Portrait of the Father Daughter Relationship

The following are the lyrics to a new song from Point of Grace entitled, King of the World. It's a beautiful picture of the joy, love and delightful times that can be had through the precious father daughter relationship. It also stresses the importance of never taking our time with our Daddies for granted! Time goes by so very fast, and before we know it, we'll all (Lord willing) have homes and families of our own-we will be living with our dear fathers no longer. So take every moment of every day as a young maiden in your father's household and make the absolute most of it with your father, who is your God-given protector, provider and leader at this time of your life as an unmarried daughter. All of our fathers are no doubt imperfect, but we musn't allow their short comings to blind us into dishonoring them, ignoring them, pushing them away, or disrespecting them. By doing so, we would miss out on some of the most precious memories of our lives. So, drink in the lyrics of this beautiful song and then run and give your Daddy a big hug and a bright smile! :)

King of the World

Spinning around on the tops of his feet
smile of the angels could not be so sweet
wide blue eyes and piggy tail swirls
she's her daddy's girl
'cause he knows the jokes that always make her laugh
takes her for ice cream instead of her nap
at the end of the day by the light of the moon
they turn up the music in their living room
and she yells,

"dance me, dance me around till my feet don't ever touch down
there's nothing better than being your girl and if i am your
princess then daddy you are the king of the world"

its funny how life moves in circles of time to think so long ago
that face was mine houses get smaller we take different names
but some things in life stay the same
"dance me, dance me around till my feet don't ever touch down
there's nothing better than being your girl and if i am your
princess then daddy you are the king of the world

some day she'll go off and find a life of her own and marry a good
man and make a happy home until she comes back and sees with
those same eyes what time can not disguse she walks through
the door with that look on her face cuz daddy's brown hair has
all turned to gray they talk for hours they cry and they laugh
watchin' old movies and thinkin' back time goes by just as she turns to go she
says hey, daddy, how 'bout one for the road

dance me, dance me around till my feet don't ever touch down

dance me, dance me around till my feet dont ever touch down cuz theres nothing better than being your girl oh theres nothing better than being your girl and if i am your princess than daddy you are the king of the worldking of the worldsmile of the angels could not be so sweet

  1. Dear Rebekah,

    I really liked the words of this song. They are a very sweet. I was just wondering; are you a fan of Point of Grace? I really do not care for their music. I really don't know much about their songs so I don't know much about their theological content. Thanks for posting the words.

  2. Meg Dear,

    Did you change the posting day of your artical series? I saw the "days left" on your poll. Yesterday it said "5" and today it says "37" What's up? Is the artical still going to be released soon? I hope so! Can you let me know?
