Strength of a man

The strength of a man is
not seen in the width of his shoulders
It's seen in the width of his arms
that circle you.

The strength of a man isn't
in the deep tone of his voice,
It is in the gentle words he whispers.

The strength of a man isn't how
many buddies he has.
It's how good a buddy he is
with his kids.

The strength of a man isn't
in how respected he is at work.
It's in how respected he is at home.

The strength of a man isn't
in how hard he hits.
It's in how tender he touches.

The strength of a man isn't
in the hair on his chest.
It's in his heart ... that lies within his chest.

The strength of a man isn't how
many women he has loved.
It's in - can he be true to one woman.

The strength of a man isn't in
the weight he can lift.
It is in the burdens he can carry.
