Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. Philippians 3:17 NIV
You have lots of teachers
But not many Fathers
Not much time to model
Not much time to bother
Someone steps forward in a flash
On a pedestal, they stand so tall
You give them everything but grace
That which is needed, when they fall
You walk in the direction that you see
Your eyes point in the way to go
Look to that which is holy and good
Revealing discernment, may you know
There is a hunger to find someone real
Someone your heart can trust
Authentic captures the thought
Integrity and honesty is a must
Are you that person others should follow
Are you the example that they need
Are you laying stones of a righteous path
Who are you helping to succeed
God will be a father to the fatherless
He will open wide His heart of love
He uses people here, in your path
Making visible what is true above
Paul said, “Follow my example
As I follow Christ too”
May God graft-in loving models
Godly people, just right for you
