Chosen and Called (Greatness)


Chris Muglia shares the story behind his uplifting song "Chosen and Called (Greatness)." Originally titled “I Am a Child of God,” the song reminds us of our meaning and purpose in life. We are each given a task. We have a calling that is both unique and similar. For together, we are here to serve the world through kindness and compassion. Every moment, large or small, is an opportunity to live as a child of God. Greatness happens when no one is watching.

I give my heart, I give my all,
to do your will, and not my own.
All that I am and will become,
I give to you and you alone.

I am a child of God.
I have been chosen and called for greatness!

Day by day, hour by hour,
In the quiet sound of love.
