One day your world seems
To fall apart at the seams
Next day salvation's at your door
Wish you could understand
The finer details of the plan
Each day you learn a little more

There's a lesson to be learned each day
It's part of being saved

You go to work each
Watching every word you say
Sometimes you'd really like to shout
And when the timing's right
You shine a bit of Jesus' light
Somebody tries to put it out

Understand that it's guilt and fear
It means you go to near

Learn work pray
Every single day

And when the work is done
With every rising sun
You know there's always something new
Your voice or your hands
Can bring the gospel to the land
God's chosen you and you will do

If you make or swing the sword
Do it for the Lord

Learn work pray
Every single day...

One day your world seems
To fall apart at the seams
Next day salvation's at your door
Wish you could understand
The finer details of the plan
Each day you learn a little more
