The Fleeting Moments of Time

They slip by like drops of water hardly noticed after the puddle drys They seem so unconcerned Those fleeting moments of time Brides are given in Marriage Cities are built at a rapid pace Bright lights add to the splendor Business deals are brokered in hast That, once so freshly painted With time falls away to ruin Imbers, dying from the beginning. From the fleeting years that burn The clock ticks off the seconds Minutes disappear through the glass The hands of time strikes the hour And moments add to the past It’s the days that make life fragile, How fast the years fall in line They say that time heals all who hurt That love is stronger than time The sands of time runs out Ticking away, leaving only a mist behind Pointing its weathered finger to Jesus He defeats the moments of time
