Lyrics

Livin? life?s a journey
That takes us many miles
I?ve chosen my life?s journey
Serving God?s people all the while

Livin? in His service
I?ve seen suffering and pain
In a child I?ve seen creation
Showing His love again and again

The blessings of this journey
In this life may not show
A reward that lasts forever
With the Father whose love I know

Livin? life?s a journey
That takes us many miles
I?ve chosen my life?s journey
Serving God?s people all the while
