You

You don't have to be a Mother Teresa
You don't have to be a Billy Graham
But you need to use the gifts that God gave you
To lend a helping hand
You don't have to be a monk in the desert
You don't have to pray by speaking in tongues
But you need to listen to that small voice speaking
To find out where you belong, 'cause

You must be the you
That God made you to be
You and only you
That's integrity
You are blessed
You are gifted
You are one of a kind
So you have to be you

You don't have to be a Francis of Assisi
You don't have to be a Martin Luther King
But you need to let the Spirit guide your actions
To bring peace in everything
You don't have to be a prophet like Isaiah
You don't have to be ordained to preach
But you might have to help your friends to know God's love
It's by actions that you teach, and

Chorus

He numbered every hair on your head,
He knit you in your mother's womb.
You can choose to be the person He made
Or not, it's up to you

Chorus
