it's a love without end, amen

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye, fighting was against the rules, and it didn't matter why, when dad got home I told that story just like I rehearsed, then stood there on those trembling knees, and waited for the worse, He said, let me tell you a secret about a father's love, a secret that my daddy said was just between us, He said daddys don't just love their children every now and then, It's a love without end, amen it's a love without end, amen When I became a father in the spring of "81" there was no doubt that stubborn boy, was just like my father's son, and when I thought my patience, had been tested to the end, I took my daddy's secret,and I passed on to him, (chorus)......... I said, let............. ...................... It's a love without end, Amen Last night I dreamed I died and, stood outside those pearly gates, and suddenly I realized, there must be some mistake, if they'ed known half the things I done, they'ed never let me in, then somewhere from the other side, I heard these words again, (chorus) They said, let me tell you a secret about a fathers love a secret that my daddy said was just between us you see, daddy's just don't love their children every now and then it's a love without end, amen it's a love without end, amen
