I really love this song! Excellent lyrics and worth applying.
Men...your families really see life this way! To God's glory, build and maintain family relationships and keep them a top priority... even above work. If you don't know a way out, ask the Lord to make the way
out. Especially in today's society, families are desperate for godly
men to be the spiritual leaders, husbands, and dads God calls them to
be. I understand the entire reason you all work so much is to support your families because you love them...yet your wife and children desire quality time with you above even possessions. Time is short; your children will grow up so quickly and they will truly value the time they got to spend with their dad more than the stuff he was able to purchase for them due to working so much. Your wife longs for time spent with you; SO, SO much more than anything money could buy. Make the time daily to come home and spend with your families...even if it were only for an hour and a half before your kids went to bed. Take your wife out on dates every week. Love her how she desires to be loved, not how you think she feels loved. If you are unsure of how to make your wife and children feel loved or are uncertain of what means a lot to them and what they would value most in your times spent together... simply ask. Treasure the time you get to spend with your wife and children! It means more to them than you might realize.
The lyrics to "Lead me" by Sanctus Real
I look around and see my wonderful life
Almost perfect from the outside
In picture frames I see my beautiful wife
Always smiling
But on the inside, I can hear her saying...
"Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?
Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone"
I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes
They're just children from the outside
I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine
They're independent
But on the inside, I can hear them saying...
"Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?
Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone"
So Father, give me the strength
To be everything I'm called to be
Oh, Father, show me the way
To lead them
Won't You lead me?
To lead them with strong hands
To stand up when they can't
Don't want to leave them hungry for love,
Chasing things that I could give up
I'll show them I'm willing to fight
And give them the best of my life
So we can call this our home
Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone
Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone
Almost perfect from the outside
In picture frames I see my beautiful wife
Always smiling
But on the inside, I can hear her saying...
"Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?
Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone"
I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes
They're just children from the outside
I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine
They're independent
But on the inside, I can hear them saying...
"Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?
Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone"
So Father, give me the strength
To be everything I'm called to be
Oh, Father, show me the way
To lead them
Won't You lead me?
To lead them with strong hands
To stand up when they can't
Don't want to leave them hungry for love,
Chasing things that I could give up
I'll show them I'm willing to fight
And give them the best of my life
So we can call this our home
Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone
Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone
