"Legacy"



“A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian…
and most of all, his family ought to know.”
  ~ D. L. Moody~

Families of God are the legacy to leave behind, a loving
father, who loves his wife and children
O, father, you are next to God in passion; you're called,
chosen, assigned and you're driven
Your children see your love for the wife of your youth,
and they have a pattern to follow
They grow and go forth from the quiver, to love their
wives and children, as a guided arrow
Homes of love beget homes that carry forth their holy
inheritance, of peace and faith
It was bought with a price on the cross, and then fought
in prayer by fathers who were awake
And, when the years have taken their toll, and the families
progress through generations intact
The heritage can be traced to those fathers long ago, who
warred in the Spirit, and that's a fact
Fathers, treat your wives like ladies, for the children are
watching, and they're forming a plan
And when they are grown and married, their wives can
say, "His father was a holy man."
It's all passed down, you know, from generation to the
next, to be holy or evil, a delicate weave
We are products of glory, raised to be pure, or tares among
wheat, when they gather the sheaves
Stand tall, O fathers, and bow low in your quest for a line
that is holy, not a tragedy or a fantasy
For many will follow you; your prayers and your life will
be a monument, of a Holy "Legacy."
