I Want To Be That Man (Live)

He was awake before the sun, with his Bible opened up
Seeking truth with every single page he turned
Anyone could see my daddy lived what he believed
With a gentle heart where passion for Jesus burned

I know we had our times we disagreed
But the longer I live, it's clear to me

I wanna be that man
Who loves the Lord with all his heart, just like the Word commands
Who takes a stand
And leads his family as he holds the Father's hand
I wanna be that man

Society would say there's a new ideal today
It's not what you give, it's more about what you can gain
But I wanna live a life that's marked by sacrifice
Like the Savior who died to show us all the way

So I'll take up my cross and trace His steps
Surrendering is how I serve Him best

I wanna be that man
Who loves the Lord with all his heart, just like the Word commands
Who takes a stand
And leads his family as He holds the Father's hand
I wanna be that man

Just like Peter, Paul, and all the saints of days gone by
Let me show that kind of faith to those who come behind

I wanna be that man
Who loves the Lord with all his heart, just like the Word commands
Who takes a stand
And leads his family as He holds the Father's hand
I wanna be that man

I'll lead my family as I hold the Father's hand
I wanna be that man
Yeah, yeah
