A careful man I want to be,

A little fellow follows me

I do not dare to go astray,

For fear he'll go the same self way.

~~~~~

I cannot once escape his eyes.

Whate're he sees me do he tries,

Like me he says he wants to be,

That little chap who follows me.

~~~~~

He thinks that I am big and fine,

he trusts in every word of mine.

The sin in me he does not see,

That little chap who follows me.

~~~~~

I must remember as I go

Through summer sun and winter snow,

I am building for the years to be

That little chap who follows me.

~~~~~

Lord, let my little chap to see

A follower leaning hard on thee;

That as he grows he'll be inspired

To seek the One whom I desire.

~~~~~

Don't you agree? This poem says it all.

I pray that I will always be pure in heart

and a Godly role model for my family.

Let's all follow the "Good Shepherd"

the upward way that leads to "HOME"
