Lyrics

Am I Listenin’

God made each and every one of us
with a special purpose in mind
He gives us each a vocation,
a way of living life
He has a special plan for me
that I may not yet know
But if I listen in my heart,
Jesus will tell me so

CHORUS:
Am I listenin’ to the Lord?
Do I hear Him when I pray,
When I go to Mass, and learn
what the Bible has to say?
Do I listen when He speaks to me
through people on my way?
Am I listenin’, am I listenin’ to the Lord?

When I grow up, I wonder what
my vocation will be
Will I be a mommy (girl) or daddy (boy),
or is there something else for me?
Jesus could be calling me
to be a priest (boy) or nun (girl)
If anyone knows what’s right for me,
Jesus is the One!

(REPEAT CHORUS)
Spoken:
Girl: “Maybe I’ll be a stay-at-home mom
and have lots of children”
Boy: “Maybe I’ll be a pilot or a deacon”
Boy: “Maybe I’ll be a hockey hall-of-famer,
or a priest, maybe even pope”

Jesus could be calling me
to be a priest (boy) or nun (girl)
If anyone knows what’s right for me,
Jesus is the One!

(REPEAT CHORUS)
Am I listenin’, am I listenin’ to the Lord?
