I want to be just like you...

... cause they want to be like me.

I love this song by Phillips, Craig and Dean!

He climbs in my lap for a goodnight hug

He calls me Dad & I call him Bub
With his faded old pillow & a bear named Pooh
He snuggles up close & says, "I wanna be like you"
I tuck him in bed & I kiss him goodnight
Trippin´ over the toys as I turn out the light
And I whisper a prayer that someday he will see
He has got a father in God ´cause he has seen Jesus in me

Lord, I wanna be just like You

´Cause he wants to be just like me
I wanna be a holy example
For his innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little boy can read
I wanna be just like You
´Cause he wants to be like me

Got to admit I have got so far to go

Make so many mistakes & I am sure that You know
Sometimes it seems no matter how hard I try
With all the pressures in life I just can´t get it all right
But I am trying so hard to learn from the best
Being patient & kind, filled with Your tenderness
´Cause I know that she will learn from the things that she sees
And the Jesus she finds will be the Jesus in me

Lord, I wanna be just like You

´Cause she wants to be just like me
I wanna be a holy example
For her innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little girl can read
I wanna be just like You
´Cause she wants to be like me

Right now from where they stand we may seem mighty tall

But it is only ´cause we're learning from the best Father of them all!
