Make Me More Like You

[Verse 1]
Lord
You see my failures
You see where I fall short
The anger and the hurry
The days I lose my joy
I’m standing in Your presence
With empty
Open hands
Teach me how to love them
Like You said I can
[Chorus]
Make me a better husband
Make me a better father
Shape my heart to look like Yours
In the way I love my daughter
My sons
My wife
Lord
Be the center of our life
Guide my steps in all I do
And make me more like You
[Verse 2]
When little eyes are watching
When little ears all hear
Give me words of kindness
Not words from hurt or fear
When my wife feels weary
Lord
Let her rest in me
Help me serve in silence
Like You washed their feet
[Chorus]
Make me a better husband
Make me a better father
Shape my heart to look like Yours
In the way I love my daughter
My sons
My wife
Lord
Be the center of our life
Guide my steps in all I do
And make me more like You
[Bridge]
When I don’t know what to say (Lord, lead me)
When I don’t know what to do (stay near me)
Hold my hand and lead the way (walk with me)
Let my family see just You
(Oh, let them see You)
[Chorus]
Make me a better husband
Make me a better father
Shape my heart to look like Yours
In the way I love my daughter
My sons
My wife
Lord
Be the center of our life
Guide my steps in all I do
And make me more like You
