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...
im thinking of moving back to my blogspot again. this blog station is reali nt v nice to use. anyway, i finally found the time to write. but then, i have no idea wat to write. my life has been good i think. sometimes i thought good in a secular way..which means, it may not be good spiritually..haha.. after all, it seemed that they are mutually exclusive in certain ways. but then, not reali too.
i have been passionate abt music lately. have written a few songs within this short frame of time. the inspiration that comes just like that. songs that contain God, songs that reflected my feelings. is always wonderful when God's presence comes again and again. but i noe, to only be living from presence to presence is reali just a child's behaviour. i noe i ought to learn to give and not just receive. God, teach me, remind me. :)
One step at a time... You said to me : )
listened to a lot of chinese pop songs lately. jolin's new song gave me a lot of feeling.. haha... not sure if im in my melancholic state again... especially this verse:
