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
