Lyrics
Let it be said of us?While we walked among the living
Let it be said of us ?By the ones we leave behind
Let it be said of us ?That we lived to be a blessing for life
Let it be said of us ?That we gave to reach the dying
Let it be said of us ?By the fruit we leave behind
Let it be said of us ?That our legacy is blessing for life
Refrain:
This day_______
You set life, you set death
Right before us, this day_____
Every blessing and curse
Is a choice now,
We will? choose to be
A blessing for life
Let it be said of us ?That our heart belonged to Jesus
Let it be said of us ?That we spoke the words of life
Let it be said of us ?That our heritage is blessing for life
(Refrain)
Bridge 1:
If blessing and curses are choices,
If blessing and curses are choices
Will we build up, tear down? The moment of truth is now.
(Refrain)
Bridge 2:
For your Kingdom, For our Children
For the sake of ?Every nation
For your Kingdom, For our Children
For the sake of ?Every nation
We will choose to be a blessing.... for life.
