I Came Here To Serve --- Song Lyric
Chorus:
I didn't come here
to build up my ego;
I didn't come here
to simply observe;
I didn't come here
to pick up a paycheck;
I came here to give all I can...
I came here to serve.
First verse:
If you get one drink of water
out of this badly cracked vessel
I will consider my life
to be worth all the time
I've spent trying
to hold that mouthful of water
for a person in need
who I doubted I'd find.
Repeat chorus:
Verse 2:
If my love has sustained you
I hope that you will be thankful
and do unto others
what I've done unto you.
This is my message
and I trust you to impart
all that you've learned
in all that you do.
Bridge:
We live in a world
full of glitter and glory
that panders to ego
but sucks out the soul.
It's only in service
to all those around us
that we find our meaning...
that we are made whole.
Repeat chorus:
