Walk a little plainer , Daddy
Said my little child so frail,
I'm following in your footsteps
And I don't want to fail.
Sometimes your steps are very plain,
Sometimes they are hard to see.
So walk a little plainer Daddy,
For you are leading me.
I know that once you walked this way
Many years ago,
And what you did along the way
I'd really like to know.
For sometimes when I am tempted
I don't know what to do.
So walk a little plainer,
Daddy,
For I must follow you.
Someday when I'm grown up
You are like I want to be.
Then I will have a little child
Who will want to follow me.
And I would want to lead them right
And help them to be true.
So walk a littl plainer,
Daddy,
For I must follow you.
