[Verse 1]

When I wake before the sunrise
And another day begins

I don’t know what waits before me
But I know why I was sent

Every moment is a gift
Every breath a chance to give

What Hashem has placed before me
And to live the life I live

[Chorus]

Every step becomes avodah
Every day another chance

Every moment that He gives me
I can lift with heart and hands

In the daylight
In the darkness

In the laughter
In the pain

Every breath becomes avodah
When I live for Him again

[Verse 2]

Some are called to save a life
Some are called to teach and guide

Some are called to raise a family
Some to stand by others’ side

Different roads and different journeys
Different burdens we may bear

But the world is changed forever
When we answer why we’re here

[Chorus]

Every step becomes avodah
Every day another chance

Every moment that He gives me
I can lift with heart and hands

In the daylight
In the darkness

In the laughter
In the pain

Every breath becomes avodah
When I live for Him again

[Bridge]

In the shul and in the workplace
At the table with my own

In the quiet acts of kindness
That no one else has known

[Final Chorus]

Every step becomes avodah
Every day another chance

Every moment that He gives me
I can lift with heart and hands

In the daylight
In the darkness

Through the years that I am given
Every breath becomes avodah

Every day a piece of Heaven

[Outro]

Every step becomes avodah
Every breath becomes a song

And the work that He has given me
Is where I belong

Every step becomes avodah
Every breath becomes a song

And the work that He has given me
Is where I belong
