Ponder - Role Model

WHen I was young you’d carry me
Safe in your arms I knew I’d be
Strength and protection, love and affection
Were mine
As I grew up you guided me
Clearing the path so my feet felt free
Free to move boldly, no hidden toll fees
To confine me
I grew up, thinking that I had to be your
Had to be your Biggest Fan, but on the
Day you passed away, I met the rest of the
Fan Club
Some you inspired, others just admired
The way you were wired, your kindness they desired
It made your fans inquire, did I grow up to be
Just like you...I said
He’s my role model
He’s my role model
I follow, your Actions, your
Words, and I’ll Always remember
Forever humble
Gentle and peaceful
I’m grateful, to live in a
World, where you left your impression
In your last month I carried you
Praying your body would renew
Giving you smiles when, deep down inside I
Cried
As you dozed off for the last time
I told you stories on my mind
Hopeful my voice would, keep your last bedtime
Away
I grew up, thinking that I had to be your
Had to be your Biggest Fan, but on the
Day you passed away, I met the rest of the
Fan Club
Some knew your brilliance, others your resilience
Your spirit and your presence, the power in your essence.
It makes sense why, I’d want to be just
Like you
He’s my role model
He’s my role model
I follow, your Actions, your
Words, and I’ll Always remember
Forever humble
Gentle and peaceful
I’m grateful, to live in a
World, where you left your impression
Rejoice
I say again rejoice
Rejoice
Though you have not seen him, you love him
And even though you do not see him now, you
Believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy
For you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your
Souls
