[bodytext] => When I think about my legacy, And all that it entails, It makes me humble deep within, For I fear I’m going to fail. Fail to be a good example, In the roles of life I play, Loved ones and strangers just alike, I want them to be able to say: That I did the things I should have done, I never compromised, I loved the Lord with all my heart, I sought favor in His eyes. I stood up for what I believed in, Even when I felt like giving up, I had the faith to keep pressing on, I showed others about God’s love. I expressed the joy that filled my soul, Laughing even in the trials, I wasn’t afraid to shed a tear, As I traveled my hardest miles. I was the kind of wife, The Lord would have me to be, And through the trials we faced together, To my husband, I lived faithfully. I was the kind of mother, That when push came to shove, That my children always knew, There was for them an unconditional love. I was the kind of daughter, Of which my parents could be proud, I stayed true to what they taught, Instead of following the crowd. I was the kind of sister, With always an ear to lend, We were partners for life, And best friends till the end. I was the kind of Christian, To others all around, I was known as a prayer warrior, With God’s love shining down. My legacy is important, This one thing I will leave behind, I will try my best to fulfill it, With body, soul, and mind.
