"May the work I’ve done speak for me. May the work I’ve done speak for me. When I’m resting in my grave, there is nothing to be said; May the work I’ve done, speak for me. May the life I live speak for me. May the life I live speak for me. When the best I try to live, my mistakes He will forgive; may the life I live speak for me. May the service I give speak for me. May the service I give speak for me. When I’ve done the best I can, and my friends don’t understand may the service I give speak for me. The work I’ve done, it seems so small, sometimes, it seems like, seems like nothing at all. But when I stand before my God, I want to hear Him say well done. May the work that I’ve done, speak for me."
