What Is My Life?

ByDan Wilt

I realized I did not post my lyrics in this section last time so here they are. The main addition in this draft is a verse 2. I would love some specific feedback! Thanks.

What Is My Life?

Key- D maj.

Intro

D G Bm7 E

Verse 1

D

I know now that my life is but a mist

G

I'm here for a while and then I'm gone

Bm7

So what will I say when I say when I see you face to face

E

Could I have done more with the life you've given me?

Chorus 1

D

What is my life?

E F#m G

A note in a symphony a grain of sand on the shore

D

What is my life?

E F#m G

A page in a book a gift of God's gracious love

What is my life?

Verse 2

D

Why do I search for the things of this world?

G

Heaping up wealth that I cannot store

Bm7

So what will I bring to the King of all Kings?

E

Could I have done more with the life you've given me?

Bridge

Am7 G Esus

At best each one of us gets a breath

Am7 G Esus

At best each one of us is a guest

F#m G

Traveling through to You

Traveling through to You

Chorus 2

D

Now I know what I am

Esus F#m G

The coin that was searched for the sheep that was carried home

D

Now I know what I am

Esus F#m G

A name in a Book written with God's own hand

That is my life
