Live Today

Yesterday has come and gone

Tomorrow is yet to be

Today is all we truly have

Each moment, eternity

 

Don’t let a moment sneak by you

Don’t let a second pass

For once it’s gone, its history

And you’ll forever lose the chance

 

Hold tight those around you

Apologize and forgive

Our next breath is never promised

Nor the breath of the one were with

 

Be kind to those around you

Friends and strangers too

For no one knows another’s heart

Or what they’re going through

 

Live each day to the fullest

Laugh and sing and dance

Wake each day with a grateful heart

For it may be your last

 

Comfort those you love

And tell them how you feel

For if you never see them again

The past you’ll wish to steal

 

We only have here and now

So welcome each new day

Know each morn is a special gift

Blessed with God’s Pure Grace.
