Footsteps

The son follows in his father's footsteps, Imitating the elder's way of life; For he earnestly wants to make himself Far away from trouble, chaos, and strife. The conduct of his beloved father Is in accordance with the righteousness; Such simple but complete submission To God brings him victory and success. His father's thought, word, and deed Are a pattern worthy to emulate; The mind and the heart are both focused On really reaching the new heaven's gate. The son's divine desire before God Is to complete the race set by the Lord; As he treads on the right path of journey, Backsliding is one thing he can't afford. He renders his holy worship service The way that the Almighty God accepts; It is taught to him by his father, So he decides to choose the fine footsteps.
