I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'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 lengthly 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
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
felt restless... dunno wat to do, though i have a lot to do...especially my studies... realli, the enemy walks round like a roaring lion seeking to devour whom he can. have to be sober and alert even in this season. my walk with the Lord dun seemed to be improving.. in fact, felt a bit of lagging behind.. sigh... wats on the surface is not equal to wat im feeling inside. of coz, i still love the Lord. with all my heart and soul! looking back to some of my sermon notes over the years, including some bible studies i did myself. im somehow amazed at myself, those things that i can write last time... where on earth did those come from?? from the Holy Spirit of coz. i dun think i can write those things now. funny isnt it, though those things were from myself. all i can say is, i am reali now just relying back on wat i had for the last few years. my foundation was strong. but that was it. stop there. ok..to be fair. i did move on a bit. but in a different aspect. i think im now stronger in the spirit, in discerning and can speak words to encourage ppl. but somehow, not in the aspect of the Word. arr... pick myself up. i do not even noe how to express myself.
while, preparing for worship on Wednesday, i picked the song " For This Cause" - somehow the tag keeps coming bakc to me: "All I want is, all I want is You, Jesus"... and it really is a longing in my heart that all i want is Him! and the scripture came, "not that i have already attained, or am already perfected; but i press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold me"! i broke down in my heart. God is so sweet that He will keep drawing me close to Him... the goodness of God... i noe i have not apprehended Him and somehow even put Him aside for days when im busy... and somehow even when im not busy...
ok..looking back at my notes.. i noticed there are some songs that i've composed over the years... haha..i forgot abt them... 4 songs altogether... 2 in 2002 and another 2 just over these few mths... not very marvellous stuff... but i can see the difference in the song of the past and the song i just written this year.
