Be Like You

Have nine months really gone this fast?

Holding my baby girl in my hands

Ten million thoughts running through my mind

One thing's for sure God I want to get this right

I want to love her like you love me

Give her everything can

I want to live a life that's holy

And be a better man

You could have chosen any body

But I'm the one you gave her to

If she's gonna be like me

Then God I want to be like you

Finally turned five and he looks like me

Always playing baseball or climbing up some tree

God I know he won't always be this young

Let him grow up proud to be his daddy's son

I want to love him like you love me

Give him everything I can

I want to live a life that's holy

And be a better man

You could have chosen any body

But I'm the one you gave him to

If he's gonna be like me

Then God I want to be like you

Cause their feet are gonna follow

Where their father leads them to

So father won't you lead me straight to you, to you

And when my life is over

I pray that they will look back

And say they saw a bit of Jesus in their dad

I want to love them like you love me

Give them everything I can

I want to live a life that's holy

And be a better man

You could have chosen any body

But I'm the one you gave them to

If their gonna be like me

Then God I want to be like you
