Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Little cleats by the door Broken bat on the lawn Spilled milk on the Bible Sunday shoes half on I lose my temper Then I bite my tongue Three small shadows Chasing what I’ve done [Chorus] Skyler Luke and Caleb Can you hear me? Every prayer I’m whispering your names I’m scared and I am stubborn and I’m weary But I’m gonna stand here anyway I don’t need perfect I need mercy in my hands God Make them God‑fearing men And make me that kind of man [Verse 2] Late night on the stairway Homework spread like a war Questions cut like metal “Dad What’s this life for?” I stumble through answers While my doubt runs deep But I’m fighting for their souls Every time they fall asleep [Chorus] Skyler Luke and Caleb Can you hear me? Every prayer I’m whispering your names I’m scared and I am stubborn and I’m weary But I’m gonna stand here anyway I don’t need perfect I need mercy in my hands God Make them God‑fearing men And make me that kind of man [Bridge] When they’re stronger than my shoulders (hey!) When they’re walking out that door Let them lean on more than bravado Give them something worth bleeding for Take my failures Take my pride Burn it down and build them right Let them love truth more than winning Let them stand up in the fight [Chorus] Skyler Luke and Caleb Can you hear me? Every prayer I’m whispering your names I’m scared and I am stubborn and I’m weary But I’m gonna stand here anyway I don’t need perfect I need mercy in my hands God Make them God‑fearing men Yeah Make them God‑fearing men And make me that kind of man
