Follow in your Footsteps

I want to follow in your footsteps Lord,

But my feet are so small.

And it seems that every step I take,

Behind yours my feet fall.

I often fall so short of the person You want me to be,

But through your grace and your love,

I know you’re transforming me.

Each day Lord, I am changing,

To be more like you.

But I forever need your guidance,

So that I may pull through.

So guide my little feet Lord,

To be swift to follow thee.

That very soon a spitting Image of you I shall be.
