Lyrics
VERSE 1
If I speak in words like angels
Or climb the highest peak
Fight for fame, build my name
So the world remembers me
It’ll fade like stars at morning
A whisper in a crowd
It will all dissolve to nothing
If that’s what my life’s about
PRE
So I pray
I pray
CHORUS
Lord make me a man who loves his kids and loves his wife
Lord make me a man who always stands for what is right
Who’s strong enough to fight a war by falling to his knees
‘Cause that’s the kind of man
That’s the kind of man I want to be
VERSE 2
Slow to speak and quick to listen
Doesn’t fear and doesn’t boast
Full of faith, full of joy
Always holding on to hope
Faithful through the darkness
Even when the night is long
Knowing in my weakness
Is where you show you’re strong
CHORUS
VERSE 3
When my life is over
And I cross the crystal sea
Let the ones I leave behind say
They saw you in me

STORY BEHIND THE SONG:
"When we wrote 'The Kind Of Man' my wife was pregnant with our first, Lennyn. In my mind I was thinking, 'being fake will never work'. This little girl is going to grow up watching me and everything I do is going to influence her. If I say one thing but do another, she'll see right through me. Then it hit me, how the rest of the world perceives me means so little compared to the impact of what goes on inside my own home." -Jordan
