I wanna leave my footprints on the sands of time<br /> Know there was something that, meant something that I left behind<br /> When I leave this world, I&#039;ll leave no regrets<br /> Leave something to remember, so they won&#039;t forget<br /> <br /> I was here<br /> I lived, I loved<br /> I was here<br /> I did, I&#039;ve done everything that I wanted<br /> And it was more than I thought it would be<br /> I will leave my mark so everyone will know<br /> I was here<br /> <br /> I want to say I lived each day, until I died<br /> And know that I meant something in, somebody&#039;s life<br /> The hearts I have touched, will be the proof that I leave<br /> That I made a difference, and this world will see<br /> <br /> I was here<br /> I lived, I loved<br /> I was here<br /> I did, I&#039;ve done everything that I wanted<br /> And it was more than I thought it would be<br /> I will leave my mark so everyone will know<br /> <br /> I was here<br /> I lived, I loved<br /> I was here<br /> I did, I&#039;ve done everything that I wanted<br /> And it was more than I thought it would be<br /> I will leave my mark so everyone will know<br /> I was here<br /> <br /> I just want them to know<br /> That I gave my all, did my best<br /> Brought someone some happiness<br /> Left this world a little better just because<br /> <br /> 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.
