Legacy (Key-F-Premiere Performance Plus) |
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 |
