Somewhere in that shell of a man
Is the one who helped make me
All that I am
Now he's old and grey
And I know that one day
He'll walk the streets of heaven
And feel no more pain
I was there on that mornin'
When my father passed away
And as I stood there by his bedside
He grew still where he lay
Now I know that he is in peace
And feelin' no more pain
As he walks and talks with Jesus
And his father again
Some say I look just like him
When he was younger you see
And when I look into a mirror
I can see him in me
Lord, I hope that I
Can live my life as he did
So I can walk the streets of heaven
And see him again
So I can walk and talk with Jesus
And my father again
