What Am I Here For?- An Exciting Musical Collaboration!



First featured on Lyrics by tia in June, the song What am I Here For? was written from a deep longing to discover purpose for life. As God would have it, a friend gained interest in the lyrics found here and desired to bring them to life musically. Little did we know that it would become an exciting musical collaboration that would yield a studio recording and spark the plans for an exciting project underway!

Here are the lyrical results of our collaboration.

What am I Here For?

What am I here for? Where do I fit in?
There's got to be so much more than merely existing.
A purpose to my life, what will bring great joy
Fulfillment of my dreams
My vision come to pass
My deepest hope restored
Contentment that will last

My reason for living should be about more than me
Impacting nations and my near community
Making a difference in my very own family
The p’wer to contribute now
Give more than I’ve ever dreamed
To bless many others’ lives
Greater than my eyes can see

Exceedingly.
Abundantly.
More that you can ask or think,
So much more.
Exceedingly.
Abundantly.
The p’wer to contribute now
Give more than I’ve ever dreamed
To bless many others’ lives
Greater than my eyes can see

There's something out there that I am meant to do
Something that can’t be done unless I made it to
The impact I'm meant to make in this whole wide world
To be of influence now
And be part of God's great plan
A strong leader of great worth
That does what the Lord commands

Exceedingly.
Abundantly.
More that you can ask or think,
So much more.
Exceedingly.
Abundantly.
To be of influence now
And be part of God's great plan
A strong leader of great worth
That does what the Lord commands

BRIDGE

I'm wondering but there's something I know for sure
His work in me He will bring it to perfection
His promises are yes and amen
His thoughts are good, my destiny He will defend
So I wait upon Him
I renew my strength and
I’ll trust His Plan, rely on His Word (I fly like an eagle. I will not get tired)
So I write the vision, make it plain to comprehend
'Cause I know it will surely come…

So all of you out there who feel the same as me
Who know that they’ll do great things much more than they can see
He’s able to do much more than we envision, feel or think
Exceeding, abundantly. Amazing, astonishing.
Let’s trust in His sovereign plan
And be the best we can be….
