A Father's Prayer
There’s little feet that follow me,
And eyes watching night and day.
There’s little voices echoing
What I act out and say.
There’s little children planning
To someday be like me.
Oh, Gracious Father, give me strength
To be what I should be.
I am the center of their world,
The wisest of the wise.
I am a monarch model,
A hero in their eyes.
Let me rule with peace and love,
With bold integrity.
Help me manifest in deed
What you want them to be.
If I should falter in my walk,
Then they will have to pay.
I only have one time to try,
Oh Yah, show me the way.
