Footprints

We say a lifetime seems so long
But before you know it, the years have gone
We can't relive one single day
Of what we do or what we say
And good intentions can be just talk
With every choice, a path is walked
One day we'll turn and look behind
To see that in the sands of time

We're leavin' footprints
We're leavin' footprints
With every step, all that'll be left
Will be our footprints
And someone will follow them you know
We're leavin' footprints wherever we go

We'll sit and think when we're alone
Of all the faces that we've known
Our children sleep with a goodnight kiss
But not a thing we've done have they ever missed
Here I know, inside I know
When all is quiet and the lights are low
I still have so much to learn
The weeks go by, the pages turn

We're leavin' footprints
We're leavin' footprints
With every step, all that'll be left
Will be our footprints
And someone will follow them you know
We're leavin' footprints wherever we go

I wake up in middle of the night
Prayin', "O Lord, help me do what is right"
To know God's love and walk in His light
To be an example, I hope that I might

Footprints, we're leavin' footprints
With every step, all that'll be left
Will be our footprints
And someone will follow them you know
We're leavin' footprints wherever we go

Footprints, we're leavin' footprints
Wherever we go, whoever we know
We're leavin' footprints
Footprints, we're leavin' footprints
Wherever we go, whoever we know
We're leavin' footprints...
