in the blink of an eye
You put me here for a reason
You have a mission for me
You knew my name and you called it
Long before I learned to breathe
Sometimes I feel disappointed
By the way I spend my time
How can I further Your kingdom
When I’m so wrapped up in mine
In a blink of an eye that is when
I’ll be closer to You than I’ve ever been
Time will fly, but until then
I’ll embrace every moment I’m given
There’s a reason I’m alive for a blink of an eyeAnd though I’m living a good life
Can my life be something great?
I have to answer the question
Before it’s too late
ChorusIf I give the very best of me
That becomes my legacy
So tell me what am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?
Chorus (repeat)
