What's my purpose

What’s My Purpose

Verse 1

I wake up every morning, same road, same day

Punch the clock, wear a smile, but it all feels gray

I do what I’m supposed to, I try my best to cope

But deep inside my heart, I’m still searching for hope

Pre-Chorus

I’ve checked all the boxes, I’ve done what they say

But there’s an empty space that won’t fade away

Chorus

What’s my purpose, Lord, what am I living for?

I go through the motions, but I feel lost at the core

I’m down on my knees, crying out to You

If You wrote my story, show me what to do

What’s my purpose, God, I’m placing it in Your hands

I don’t need all the answers, just help me understand

Verse 2

I see people chasing dreams, shining so bright

And I wonder why mine feels so far from sight

I’ve tried to fill the silence with work and with plans

But my soul keeps reaching for more than I am

Pre-Chorus

I know there’s a reason You breathed life in me

So I’m laying my questions at Your feet

Chorus

What’s my purpose, Lord, what am I living for?

I go through the motions, but I feel lost at the core

I’m down on my knees, crying out to You

If You wrote my story, show me what to do

What’s my purpose, God, I’m placing it in Your hands

I don’t need all the answers, just help me understand

Bridge

If my purpose is loving, then teach me to love

If it’s serving the broken, then give me Your heart

If it’s walking by faith when I can’t see the road

I’ll trust You step by step wherever I go

Bridge (soft)

Remind me I matter, remind me I’m called

Even when I feel like I’m nothing at all

Chorus (Final)

You’re my purpose, Lord, You always have been

Not in what I achieve, but who I am in You

I’ll stop chasing meaning in all that I do

And find my forever in following You

You’re my purpose, God, every breath that I take

Even in the waiting, I know You’re at work in me

Outro

So here’s my life, Lord, every question, every plan

I may not know my purpose yet

But I know who holds my hand
