[Intro]
D D7 G
[Verse]
G C
I want to follow in daddy's footsteps
D7 G
Let me be the man he wanted me to be
C
I want to follow the path of righteousness
D7 G
Remembering all the things he told to me
D7
He said son love thy neighbor
G
And trust in Him above
A7
Think not of hate but keep within
D7
A heart that's filled with love
G C
I want to follow in daddy's footsteps
D7 G G
Let me be the man my daddy used to be
[Recitation]
C
Yes Jesus let me follow in the footsteps of my dad
D7
Cause 'twas him that often told me of you on your throne of gold
G
And he told me of how You searched the mountain
D7 G
For the little lamb that went astray
D7 C
And brought him back and tucked him so safely in the fold
D7
And he told me how they hung You on the cold and bitter cross
G D7
And his story went on how they placed the crown upon your head
G
And he told me how they pierced your tender side O Son of God
A7
And left you there to hang until you were dead
D7
That's why I want to follow in the footsteps of my daddy now
G
Because I want to be the man that he wanted me to be
C D7
And then some day just as he told me before he left us and went away
G
My loving daddy with my Jesus I shall see
[Outro]
D7 G D7 G
So I'll trust in the Father that watches from above
A7 D7
To take good care of daddy and shower him with precious love
G C
I want to follow in daddy's footsteps
D7 G
Let me be the man that daddy use to be
