Leaving Your Mark
The scriptures declare born into this world
we bring nothing dying we leave our all
so what's the point of life here below?
let's think what mark have I left on its wall
Hopefully, I've been able to influence some
by my actions, words and how I did walk
may some have sought to follow my steps
pointing their eyes to my solid rock
That rock is God himself in His Son
as His word declares to be the only way
that way I've sought to follow in life
so that others would seek Him one day
God's holy word I've believed in my heart
from Genesis to Revelation has been my guide
for it's inerrant, inspired, faithful and true
it's influenced me being right at my side
This world would truly be a better place
if they would keep God's word to trust and obey
give honour and glory to Jesus the saviour
this is my mark left that's all I've got to say!
