I'm just an ordinary person With so much resistance and so many hindrances I'm just a common average woman With an ugly past that keeps tryin' to hold me back Limitations all surround me And this world thinks that it's drowning in hopelessness Then I hear you call my name out loud And I say yes Just a moment for a lifetime For such a time as this I say yes I've been chosen to arise For such a time as this and I say yes Alive awake alert I know I don't deserve Why I'm in this position But I'm here ready to serve Willing to lose it all I'm answering your call Oh heart and soul please listen For the mandate must be heard Your grace and favor crown me
And I need your strength around me 'Cause I still fear how hard it might be Then I hear you call my name out loud And I say yes Just a moment for a lifetime For such a time as this I say yes I've been chosen to arise For such a time as this and I say yes And what's worth living for if nothing is worth dying for I'm gonna make a stand I'm gonna make an echo I'm gonna make some history with his story Writing the pages of today to read about tomorrows change 'Cause I know I was made for such a time as this Just a moment for a lifetime For such a time as this I say yes I've been chosen to arise For such a time as this and I say yes
