Life is a vapor   So quickly fading   It only lasts a season then it's gone   And I have chosen   To live each moment   Depending on a strength beyond my own      For even thought my weakness   I am learning to believe   That through my silent faith   Somebody will see      (chorus)   When I am gone   What will they say   When I am gone   Will I leave behind a witness   That will carry on   When all the works and deeds that I have done   Dissolve into the past   Lord, let Your fire burn steadfast   When I am gone      I look around me   And see the darkness   Within a world where few are set apart   And then I wonder   Have I been faithful   To share the hope that lives within my heart      For when I tell another   What the savior's love can do   They just might be the one   To reach out to you      (chorus)
