Death awaits us all as we walk this path |
|
Though different endings, in His light or in His wrath |
|
We never know what awaits |
|
For every loved one lost I see the pain in every heart |
|
And still we all must pay the cost our sin has kept us apart |
|
So you've got the world |
|
Gripping your life in your hands |
|
Taking for granted the breath in your lungs |
|
But death has a voice |
|
Singing to us "Make your stand!" |
|
Death is ever certain we all share this fate |
|
I watched you go away (Know it was coming) |
|
Vanished and we didn't know it (We didn't know it) |
|
I sat and watched and prayed (We didn't know it) |
|
God has called your name (We didn't know it) |
|
In death we see that we are just as vapors |
|
And life has become what we all do savor |
|
When all is lost and taken away |
|
Endless nights to weep and pray |
|
We're letting it all out and it feels so quiet |
|
For every loved one lost I see the pain in every heart |
|
And still we all must pay the cost our sin has kept us apart |
|
Still in these bodies feeling fragile with the same fate |
|
Never knowing if our time fills or death awaits |
|
While our hearts are pounding inside we'll fight and not break |
|
To my King I will confide my everything |
|
In death we see that we are just as vapors |
|
And life has become what we all do savor |
|
When all is lost and taken away |
|
Endless nights to weep and pray |
|
We're letting it all out and it feels so quiet |
|
Still I'll walk Your path for You write my story |
|
And I'll count the days till I see Your glory |
|
Still I'll walk Your path for You write my story |
|
And I'll count the days till I see Your glory |
|
You will clothe us in spotless white |
|
I'll sing to Your glories, what a beautiful sight |
|
A host of saints and all the angels |
|
With no constraints and nothing painful |
|
We'll sing these songs and You will listen |
|
In the Book of Life our names are written |
