When I Am Gone Lyrics

When I Am Gone lyrics

Life is a vapor

 So quickly fading

 It only lasts a season then it's gone

 And I have chosen

 To live each moment

 Depending on a strength beyond my own

 

 For even thought my weakness

 I am learning to believe

 That through my silent faith

 Somebody will see

 

 (chorus)

 When I am gone

 What will they say

 When I am gone

 Will I leave behind a witness

 That will carry on

 When all the works and deeds that I have done

 Dissolve into the past

 Lord, let Your fire burn steadfast

 When I am gone

 

 I look around me

 And see the darkness

 Within a world where few are set apart

 And then I wonder

 Have I been faithful

 To share the hope that lives within my heart

 

 For when I tell another

 What the savior's love can do

 They just might be the one

 To reach out to you

 

 (chorus)
