Legacy Of Love |
He was the kind of man that good men talk about |
The way he showed his faith was how he lived it out |
His hands were rough and calloused and his shoes were old and torn |
And the lines that framed his smile were lines so well and deep and worn |
So what will be remembered of what he left behind? |
What will stand the test of time? |
How to love your neighbor and how to love your wife |
Wrap your arms around your children and pray with them each night |
Thank God for all the good things 'cause the good things are enough |
The ties that bind and leave behind a legacy of love |
He worked a second job to make the ends all meet |
But somehow managed to always be there for me |
Showed me how to listen and how to stand for what is right |
And taught me all the things that really matter in this life |
As I look into the eyes of my daughters and my sons |
I hope I’ve stood for something that they’ll want to carry on |
'Cause life is far too short not to finally realize |
That its long enough to make a difference in someone’s life |
So I’m gonna love my neighbor and I’m gonna love my wife |
Wrap my arms around my children and pray with them each night |
Thank God for all the good things cause the good things are enough |
The ties that bind and leave behind a legacy of love |
