Legacy |
| I don’t mind if you’ve got something nice to say about me And I enjoy an accolade like the rest |
| And you can take my picture and hang it in a gallery |
| Of all the Who’s Who’s and So-and-So's |
| That used to be the best at such and such |
| It wouldn’t matter much |
| I won’t lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights |
| We all need an «Atta boy"or «Atta girl» |
| But in the end I’d like to hang my hat on more besides |
| The temporary trappings of this world |
| I want to leave a legacy |
| How will they remember me? |
| Did I choose to love? |
| Did I point to You enough |
| To make a mark on things |
| I want to leave an offering |
| A child of mercy and grace |
| Who blessed Your name unapologetically |
| And leave that kind of legacy |
| I don’t have to look too far or too long awhile |
| To make a lengthy list of all that I enjoy |
| It’s an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile |
| Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon |
| Enough destroy |
| I want to leave a legacy |
| How will they remember me? |
| Did I choose to love? |
| Did I point to You enough |
| To make a mark on things |
| I want to leave an offering |
| A child of mercy and grace |
| Who blessed Your name unapologetically |
| And leave that kind of legacy |
| Not well-traveled, not well-read |
| Not well-to-do, or well-bred |
| Just want to hear instead |
| Well done, good and faithful one |
| I want to leave a legacy |
| How will they remember me? |
| Did I choose to love? |
| Did I point to You enough |
| To make a mark on things |
| I want to leave an offering |
| A child of mercy and grace |
| Who blessed Your name unapologetically |
| And leave that kind of legacy |
| I don’t mind if you’ve got something nice to say about me |
