By My Example

By: H. L. Wright
 
By my example let me inspire
Only the good in everyone I meet
By my example let me inspire mercy
Let me open a closed heart

Rest a weary mind
Lead the souls that need you to a path
of love and compassion, for their fellow man
Allow my example to inspire real faith
Faith that is strong and unwavering, no matter what

By my example Lord, let me show
What it really means to be a child of God
Let me show how to live in the word

By my example Lord, let me share with others
What you have taught me
About living in God's word
By your example

Allow me to learn Father
Through the examples, of all you have touched
The reality that is you

Unseen by modern man
The inspiration for all that is good
If I can change one life for the better
Please let me do so, by my example
Father as you have done for me
By your example 

Let me teach and guide my loved ones
By what I say, by what I do
Let me be their rock
While guiding them to mine
Lord you are my foundation
My rock, my example

And when my time is over
Let my legacy be that my example
Was an inspiration to someone
Just as yours has been to me
