I hear the ticking of the clock
And I know that every second counts
You said the rewards I’ll have in heaven
All stem from what I’m doing now
Don’t let me waste another day, I pray…
Let every word that I speak
Be about You
And Your kingdom
Let everything within me
Be about You
And Your kingdom come
I wanna live a life that’s holy
And shines all for Your glory
To hear You say, “well done”
I won’t let nothing hold me down
I’ll throw off every weight and sin
There’s only one shot at this race
And I’ve purposed, I’m gonna run to win
I won’t waste one single day as I pray…
Let every word that I speak
Be about You
And Your kingdom
Let everything within me
Be about You
And Your kingdom come
I wanna live a life that’s holy
And shines all for Your glory
To hear You say, “well done”
May my every moment
Bring joy to Your heart
And everything I do
Reflect who You are
Though I’m not there yet
Still I know where to start
Let every word that I speak
Be about You
And Your kingdom
Let everything within me
Be about You
And Your kingdom come
I wanna live a life that’s holy
And shines all for Your glory
To hear You say, “well done”
