I wanna leave my footprints on the sands of time
Know there was something that, meant something that I left behind
When I leave this world, I'll leave no regrets
Leave something to remember, so they won't forget

I was here
I lived, I loved
I was here
I did, I've done everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know
I was here

I want to say I lived each day, until I died
And know that I meant something in, somebody's life
The hearts I have touched, will be the proof that I leave
That I made a difference, and this world will see

I was here
I lived, I loved
I was here
I did, I've done everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know

I was here
I lived, I loved
I was here
I did, I've done everything that I wanted
And it was more than I thought it would be
I will leave my mark so everyone will know
I was here

I just want them to know
That I gave my all, did my best
Brought someone some happiness
Left this world a little better just because

I was here


Intro
Daughter- listen to the sound
Of the silence/ crying out
Hear my voice/
As I whisper- in the wind.
Know it is I
Who calls you by name.

Verse One
My love/ I created you
Formed in the womb/
I watched you grow
My spirit I breathed
Oh I breathed into you.
My eyes swelled with tears
As I gave life to you
My beautiful dream.

Chorus
So draw near to me
Do not- be afraid.
Hold on to me/ cling to my breast
Darling- leave behind/
This world and its mess
Dwell in my peace-
Let your soul find rest
As you enter me.

Verse Two
Awake and arise
O precious child.
Fear not this day
It is yours/ and you are mine.
Darling- trust me
Your protection, I will be
I’ll place you in-
The depths of my wounds
There you will hide/
And there you will heal.

Chorus
So draw near to me
Do not- be afraid.
Hold on to me/ cling to my breast
Darling- leave behind/
This world and its mess
Dwell in my peace-
Let your soul find rest
As you enter me.


Bridge
Hand me your heart/
Trust in me your soul.
I long to embrace the love you hold.

Chorus
So draw near to me
Do not- be afraid.
Hold on to me/ cling to my breast
Darling- leave behind/
This world and its mess
Dwell in my peace-
Let your soul find rest
As you enter me.

As you enter me…
Child enter me…

I wrote this song one day during geometry. At the time I had been praying for God to show me how to see me the way HE does.
