“This Life”—Then Sings My Soul Saturdays

Do you ever feel like you weren’t made for this?

While I do love the life I’ve been given—it’s incredible—I still look around at situations and sufferings and struggles, and I know: there is better. There is more.

And more is on the way. For eternity.

But in the meantime, we’re to make Him shine where He has us.

I’m thankful I am where I am, but I really look forward to where I will be. And Who I will be with. For eternity.

“This LIfe” is one of my favorites from MercyMe’s newest album The Generous Mr. Lovewell. But it’s more than an album; it’s a movement to encourage people to love well.

LYRICS

This is not my home
(This is not my space)
Simply not my style
(This is not my place)

Can't get comfortable
(Can’t get settled in)
Simply don’t belong
(Can’t get used to this)

But I’m here right now
(I can hear You say)
Make the most of Me
(This won’t go to waste)

If I’m out of my mind
(Yeah it’s all for Christ)
If I’m making sense
(Then get it right)

Every moment is a chance
To let Your light break through

CHORUS:
This life (oh oh oh oh)
This life was meant to shine
This life (oh oh oh oh)
This life was meant to shine

I don’t have to stall
(I don’t have to wait)
Don’t have to bide my time
(Till I make my escape)

Cuz heaven’s in my heart
(I won’t settle for less)
I will lift Your name
(By the life I live)

Every moment is a chance
To let Your light break through

CHORUS

Hold your heads up high
This is our moment to rise
We were meant to shine
Not just survive

REPEAT

CHORUS
