Looking for a song I heard today...

[Daily Interlude]

It was about a father wanting to be more like Jesus because his you son wants to be more like him.

Anyone? It was the first time I heard it today so either it's really old or really new or it's just not popular!

Thanks in advance!

Yup! The song is called "I Want To Be Just Like You" and it's sung by Phillips, Craig, & Dean.

I LOVE this song - it's so precious.

The lyrics:

He climbs in my lap for a goodnight hug
He calls me Dad and I call him Bub
With his faded old pillow and a bear named Pooh
He snuggles up close and says, "I want to be like you"
I tuck him in bed and I kiss him goodnight
Trippin' over the toys as I turn out the light
And I whisper a prayer that someday he'll see
He's got a father in God 'cause he's seen Jesus in me

Lord, I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be just like me
I want to be a holy example
For his innocent eyes to see
Help me be a living Bible, Lord
That my little boy can read
I want to be just like You
'Cause he wants to be like me

Got to admit I've got so far to go
Make so many mistakes and I'm sure that You know
Sometimes it seems no matter how hard I try
With all the pressures in life I just can't get it all right
But I'm trying so hard to learn from the best
Being patient and kind, filled with Your tenderness
'Cause I know that he'll learn from the things that he sees
And the Jesus he finds will be the Jesus in me
Right now from where he stands I may seem mighty tall
But it's only 'cause I'm learning from the best Father of them all

That reminds me....
Has anyone ever heard a song called "Going to the House of God" ?? I heard it once and never again. The station I heard it on (ccm format) couldnt find it in their playlist. I thought it may have been Delerious but it is not on any of their stuff.
