What I Want Them to Say - Newsboys

What’s a man to do

When every dream he’s chased comes true

All the trophies on a wall

Are gonna lose their shine and fall

What’s a stage played on

If we don’t give You every song

All the cheers and the applause

In the arena they’ll be lost

What will they think about the things I did

What will they say about the life I’ve lived

I want them to say…

He’s the one whose faith didn’t fade

When everything crashed, he didn’t cave

He never lost his awe and wonder

The one that kept me from going under

And he ran a good race

That’s what I want, what I want, I want them to say

What if they all know my name

But never see beyond my face

A pointless legacy

There so much more inside of me

He fights for the weak

Has arms that reach out for Jesus

Every word that he speaks

Helps me to believe there’s a God that loves us

Oh Lord, I want YOU to say…
