Walk A Little Plainer Daddy

“Walk a little plainer, Daddy,”
said a little boy so frail.
“I’m following in your footsteps
And I don’t want to fail.

Sometimes your steps are very plain,
Sometimes they’re hard to see.
So walk a little plainer, Daddy,
For you are leading me.
I know that you once walked this way
Many years ago.
And what you did along the way
I’d really like to know.
For sometimes when I’m tempted
I don’t know what to do.
So, walk a little plainer, Daddy,
For I must follow you.

Someday when I am grown up,
You are like I want to be,
Then I will have a little boy,
Who will want to follow me.
And I would want to lead him right
And help him to be true.
So, walk a little plainer, Daddy,
For we must follow you.

This Father's Day is the first in 30 years I'll not be with my sons. That will seem strange.

Every day is Father's day in my mind.

Great poem! -- I never knew my own earthly father, but, have always gone out of my way to try to provide a good example for my children and grandchildren. They (and their spouses) have turned-out to be good, honest, God-loving people and I am indeed blessed.

Congratulations . . . wonderful witness, brother! But I will feel we have turned a very important corner in Christianity when the phrase routinely becomes "God-loving men and boys."

Thank's Pastor Al. I appreciated the video. I believe I'll be showing it Sunday.
