This Journey is My Own

When I stand before the Lord, I'll be standing alone.
Still I want man's advice, and I need man's approval,
but this journey is my own.

So much of what I do is to make a good impression.
So much of what I say is to make myself look better.
This journey is my own.

Why would I want to live for man and pay the highest price?
What would it mean to gain the world, only to lose my life?

I have never felt relief like I feel it right now.
Cause trying to please the world, it was breaking me down,
it was breaking me down.

Now I live and I breathe for an audience of One,
now I live and I breathe for an audience of One.
Cause I know, this journey is my own.

You can live for someone else, and it will only bring you pain.
I can't even judge myself. Only the Lord can say, "Well done."

Great words Tracy - so true arent they. It's so easy to get caught up in this futile world.
