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)
