Looking Up
Daddy was a preacher
The man I wanted to be
No, he didn't wear a cape and he couldn't fly
But he was a hero to me
Even heroes are human
But there's one thing I always knew
The whole time I was looking up to him
He was looking up to You, You, You
Now I'm somebody's daddy
I got two beautiful girls
They look at me like they think I hung the moon
And I feel the weight of their world
And I don't know how to lead them
So, lead my every move
'Cause I know those eyes looking up to me
That's why I'm looking up to You, You, You
I don't wanna take a step unless You lead it
I don't wanna speak a word unless You breathe it
God I'm looking up, keep me looking up
Looking up to the light I know will guide me
And I pray every day You find me
Find me looking up, always looking up
I've been working my whole life
To stand up on this stage
In front of a crowd under the bright lights
Yeah, but one thing has changed
I used to dream of the day it was my name
That everybody knew
Now I know that You led me here to leave 'em
Looking up to You, You, You
I don't wanna take a step unless You lead it
I don't wanna speak a word unless You breathe it
God I'm looking up, keep me looking up
Looking up to the light I know will guide me
And I pray every day You find me
Find me looking up, always looking up
To You
Can we look it up, yeah
Always looking up
Lord, I'm looking up to You
I'm looking up to You
Dear Lord, when I'm tempted to look at the world around me for
Satisfaction only You can provide, keep me looking up to You
When troubles surround me
And I'm tempted to fix my eyes on my
Circumstances, keep me looking up to You
I'm trying to lead my family
Help me remember that starts by following
Lord, keep me looking up to You, always looking up to You
Amen
