Everyone wants
A part of you
Your attention
And what you can do
A new work project
Your wife needs a date
You feel the conflict
But, some things can't wait
Then a new callings
Adds to your plate
More time, more helping
More growth and more faith
Like a man with a bowl
First add what is big
Then shake in the small
Now all will fit in
First God and family
A light grows within
Through projects happening
You've strength to the end
[Verse 1] Everyone wants a part of you, Your attention and what you can do. A new work project, your wife needs a date, You feel the conflict, some things can’t wait. [Verse 2] Then a new calling adds to your plate, More time, more helping, more growth, more faith. The hours stretch, but your purpose is clear, You learn what matters by holding it near. [Chorus] Like a man with a bowl, first add what is big, Then shake in the small till it settles within. First God and family; let that light begin, Through projects and seasons, find strength to the end. [Bridge] Give the best of your day where it’s needed most, Keep a hand for your neighbor, a heart for your home. When the pieces are ordered, the crowded can fit, And the weight that you carry grows lighter with it. [Final Chorus] Like a man with a bowl, first add what is big, Then shake in the small till it settles within. First God and family; let that light begin, Through projects and seasons, find strength to the end. [Outro] First God and family, Then the rest falls in.
