I'm just an ordinary person,
With so much resistance and so many hindrances.
I'm just a common average woman,
With an ugly past, that keeps tryin to hold me back.
Limitations all surround me
And this world thinks that it's drowning in hopelessness.
Then I hear you call my name
Out loud and I say yes!
Just a moment for a lifetime.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes! (yes)
I've been chosen to arise.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes!
Alive awake alert, I know I don't deserve,
Why I'm in this position,
But I'm here ready to serve.
Willing to lose it all, I'm answering Your call.
Oh heart and soul please listen,
For the mandate must be heard.
Your grace and favor crown me,
And I need Your strength around me,
Cause I still fear how hard it might be.
Then I hear you call my name
Out loud and I say yes!
Just a moment for a lifetime.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes! (yes)
I've been chosen to arise.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes!
And what's worth living for
If nothing is worth dying for?
I'm gonna make a stand, I'm gonna make an echo.
I'm gonna make some history, yeah, with His story!
Writing the pages of today
To read about tomorrow's change,
Cause I know I was made, for such a time as this.
Just a moment (just a moment)
For a lifetime (for a lifetime).
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes! (yes)
I've been chosen (I've been chosen)
To arise (to arise).
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes!
Just a moment for a lifetime.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes! (yes)
I've been chosen to arise.
For such a time as this, I say yes, I say yes!
