  • Glen Weekly cut a path deep and wide|He taught us well 'bout how to live this life|Now he's gone||I was thinking as they laid him in the ground|Oh! Ain't everyday that a giant comes around|I'm gonna miss him|I recall the words he spoke many times|What matters most of all is what you leave behind|And with these words he laid the gauntlet down|What are we gonna do now?||We can show some love and find some grace|Make this world a better|Take the walls we've built and tear them down|We can leave behind a legacy|Change the course of history|Time has placed the future in our hands|What are we gonna do now?||The book tells of a man, traveled town to town|Spreading good news of love all around|Then He was gone|Oh! Still we are confronted by the truth He left|We've got to learn to love our neighbors as ourselves|And with these words he laid the gauntlet down|What are we gonna do now?||We can leave behind a legacy|Change the course of history|Time has placed the future in our hands|What are we gonna do now?||Forever on the pages there in red|That's where you need to live your life|Brother Weekly always said|It's not enough just to believe|You've got to practice what you preach|Oh! What are we gonna do now?||What are we gonna do|What are we gonna do now||We can leave behind a legacy|Change the course of history|Time has placed the future in our hands|What are we gonna do now?| Writer/s: CHAZ BOSARGE, DANA WILLIAMS, JOE BECK
