Walk A Little Plainer Daddy~Places Of The Heart

WALK A LITTLE PLAINER DADDY

Walk a little plainer Daddy
said a little boy one day
I'm following in your footsteps,
and I want to know the way.
Sometimes your steps are very plain
and sometimes hard to see.
So walk a little plainer, Daddy,
for you are leading me.
I know that once you walked this way,
many years ago,
and what you did along the way
I'd really like to know.
For sometimes I am tempted
and don't know what to do
so walk a little plainer, Daddy,
for I must follow you.
Sometimes when I am all grown up
you are like I want to be
Then I will know 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
We must follow you.
