Born for Such a Time Lyrics by Chris Burns

Perfume Jar

2013

[Verse 1]
Who says we can't walk like Enoch?
Who says we can't burn like John?
Who says we can't glow like Moses?
Hear the call, generation of God
Who says we can't praise You as David?
Who says we can't prophesy as Samuel?
Who says we can't chase You like Paul?
Hear the call, generation of God
[Chorus]
We're throwing off complacency
We're throwing off mediocrity
'Cause we were born for such a time
For such a time as this
We were born for such a time
For such a time as this
To carry the glory of Your name
Wе were born for a time as this
[Post-Chorus]
You wеre born for more
You were born for more
You were born for more
Hear the call, generation of God
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Who says we can't walk with You like Enoch?
Who says we can't burn like John?
Who says we can't glow like Moses?
Hear the call, generation of God
Who says we can't have faith like Wigglesworth?
Who says we can't preach like Finney?
And who says we can't see revival like Roberts?
Hear the call, generation of God
[Chorus]
We're throwing off complacency
We're throwing off mediocrity
'Cause we were born for such a time
For such a time as this
We were born for such a time
For such a time as this
To carry the glory of Your name
We were born for a time as this
We were born for such a time
For such a time as this
To carry the glory of Your name
We were born for a time as this
We were born for a time as this
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Born with purpose, born with destiny yeah (Oh, oh)
[Outro]
And I say we can walk like Enoch
Oh, and I say we will burn like John
And I say we will glow like Moses
Hear the call, generation of God
Hear the call, generation of God
Hear the call, generation of God
