[Verse 1]
Well I could talk for hours about His coming
But the louder that I speak
I'd just grow deaf against his call
And I could pray for years
I could bind my ails and my fears
And even believe I have the answer to it all
[Chorus]
But when it's all been said
And when it's all been done He'll ask me
Did you go my way child
Did you know my son
And when it's all been said
And when it's all been done he'll ask me
Did you find your way within my son
[Verse 2]
Well I could sing his praise
I can tithe my life away
to build a church that stands
Much taller than the rest
Or I could speak a language
That only a few could understand
Or write a book that tells the world
My way's the best
[Chorus]
But when it's all been said
And when it's all been done He'll ask me
Did you go my way child
Did you know my son
And when it's all been said
And when it's all been done he'll ask me
Did you find your way within my son
[Verse 3]
And when the time arrives
To leave behind our earthly lives
And go before the God
That calls our souls to be
Will you answer Lord I knew you well
I walked Your way
I lived a life that caused another man to see
[Bridge]
Now you can spend your time
Turning tricks for all mankind
And you can base your life on meaningless reward
But a wiser man is he who knows himself eternally
And sees his value not in life but in his Lord
[Chorus] [X2]
But when it's all been said
And when it's all been done He'll ask me
Did you go my way child
Did you know my son
And when it's all been said
And when it's all been done he'll ask me
Did you find your way within my son
Did you find your way within my son
