Finally turned five and he looks like me
Always playing baseball or climbing up some tree
God I know he won’t always be this young
Let him grow up proud to be his daddy’s sonI want to love him like You love me
give him everything I can

and be a better man
You could have chosen any body
but I’m the one You gave him to
If he’s gonna be like me
Then God I want to be like You
