Someplace, Something, someone

Dear, come sit beside me,

There’s something you should know.

Life will take you places

You may not choose to go.

Don’t spend your days just wondering

Why one road feels so long.

God will use the place you’re in

To help someone else be strong.

You may think you’re just passing through,

Just another face in town.

But Heaven may have planted you

Where hope is wearing down.

God says, “Whatever you do, do it with all your heart.”

Every seed of kindness

Can become a brand-new start.

You don’t have to know the reason,

Or how the story’s done…

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

Chorus

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

Be His hands till hope has come,

That’s how Heaven’s work is done.

Be somebody’s sunshine

When sunny skies turn gray.

You may be the answer

To a prayer someone prayed.

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

It’s just a phone call,

Or quietly holding on.

It’s simply showing up

Before the hope is gone.

It’s sitting by their bedside,

Listening while they cry.

Sometimes the greatest gift you give

Is simply standing by.

It’s walking one more mile,

Right there by their side.

Love can look like staying

When others say goodbye.

God says, “Encourage one another and build each other up.”

That’s how Heaven mends a heart

That’s longing for His love.

One gentle word can lift a soul

Like rain sent from above.

Chorus

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

Be His hands till hope has come,

That’s how Heaven’s work is done.

Be somebody’s sunshine

When sunny skies turn gray.

You may be the answer

To a prayer someone prayed.

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

Bridge

Dear, if I could tell you

Just one more thing before I’m gone,

I’d tell you life is measured

By the love you pass along.

God says, “Carry one another’s burdens.”

Love is how faith is shown.

And in the lives you’ve gently touched,

His goodness will be known.

I’ve lived a life with no regrets,

I’ve loved some faithful friends.

I’ve seen this great big world unfold,

From beginning to its end.

There’s always more that we could give,

Though my race is almost run.

So don’t wait until tomorrow—

To do the good that can be done.

God says, “Let your light shine before others.”

Don’t hide what He has done.

So live each day with open hands,

And share His love with everyone.

Final Chorus

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

Be His hands till hope has come,

That’s how Heaven’s work is done.

Be somebody’s sunshine

When sunny skies turn gray.

The light you show today can brighten

Another soul along the way.

God puts you someplace

To mean something to someone.

No step is ever wasted.

No moment comes undone.

If God has placed you where you are…

It’s because you mean something to someone.
