Most of my life
Around the boys
Staying away
From drama and noise
I had to say boys will be boys.
Now I look
to discover and see
Men of God
Too few around me.
Men that are strong
Convictions so pure
They'd lay down their life
For their children and wife
Sweat on their brow
Their hand to the plow
Speaking aloud
The truth they
Have found
Not backing down
Feet planted firm
Unafraid of the battle
Their love undeferred.
A powerful man
Is humble and true
He knows it is Christ
That's given him life
Making him father
And husband to wife.
Walking so humbly
With tenderness
So slight
Tucked away when in battle
Deep love
The fire in his fight.
He looks to His Father.
In prayer, he knows
The Lord of Hosts with him as
He goes to the fight
Cloud by day
And fire by night.
Is a man of God
In whom Father delights.
