Lyrics
Verse 1
When I am gone will I have walked out my full purpose and my destiny?
Will my song have touched every life that God intended it to reach?
Life is but a vapor, in the scope of it all
Will my God be pleased when my night falls?
Did I sing, did I pray, did I encourage someone along the way?
Did I reach out and take a neighbor by the hand...spread God's love across the land?
Chorus
Did I fulfill my destiny?
Did I waste too many days, too many minutes, too many seconds?
Was I all I was called to be?
Did I spread God's love and God's joy and God's peace?
Did I tell everyone I'd meet about the hope and the future?
About the plans God has for man
When it's all said and done, was I all...all I was called to be?
Verse 2
I know that life's trials can get you down
Situations all around
You say you've done all you can to stand, but your ground's like sinking sand
If you dare to believe, God's blessings you'll receive
Things are working out for your good
Oh my love I wish that you would
Chorus
Fulfill your destiny, don't waste another day, another minute, another second
Be all you are called to be, spread God's love and God's joy and God's peace
Tell everyone you meet about the hope and the future, about the plans God has for man
When it's all said and done, won't you be all you are called to be
Vamp
If by land or if by sea, across the airways, even telepathy
Won't you spread God's Word
Tell every man and woman, boy and girl you meet
Won't you fulfill your destiny and share God's love
Chorus
Fulfill your destiny, don't waste another day, another minute, another second
Be all you are called to be, spread God's love and God's joy and God's peace
Tell everyone you meet about the hope and the future, about the plans God has for man
When it's all said and done, won't you be all you are called to be
