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
