Story Behind the Song
When writing this song I couldn't help but think that all of my efforts on this earth are so small. I should not strive to make a name for myself or gather attention for my own sake. In the end, all of my work in this world is insignificant in comparassion to the one person I sing about. I encourge you all to really read the lyrics to all songs and to think them over. If you are confused or disagree with anything or whatever!, please write me an email and I would absolutely LOVE to talk about it with you. My goal in writing music is to express a relationship in my life that has completely changed and consumed me. I hope that it is evident in my music as well as my actions. Again, I'm open to any suggestions, questions, discussions whatever! Please drop me a note if you feel like it! I hope everyone is having an amazing summer!
Love
Denise!
Lyrics
So many strive to leave a legacy,
Small or large to be remembered.
A whole life wasted in vain,
As we all return to dust.
I will come and go in this world,
Age and weather and eventually be forgotten. But Lord it comforts me to know Your legacy, Lives on, lives on.
*For you are Ageless, Timeless, and Strong.
Your story will never die.
2000 years, eternity to reign,
Oh Lord You are remembered.
No other master has so great a following
All the Napoleons will surely fade away
But Your example of a life to imitate
Lives on, lives on.
Men will try to conquer land and worldly things, But You have conquered souls of humanity. And won the battle of all eternity
Live on, live on. *
If in any way I can add to the cause
And spur on Your never-ending story.
I pray that would be my legacy
My legacy in You, My legacy in You.*
