Soon Take Away

I watch daily as you traverse in life
Throughout the moments of your day
I feel your sorrow, I feel your pain
As you are lost in your worldly ways

Many times I try to get your attention
Yet so often you are too blind to see
That in your world of hustle and bustle
You now have a much greater need of me

You do not realize all that you see daily
Has a predestined day and time to fade away
But you fervently consume all that's before you
Hoping in this dying world you will stay

Yes, there is a time and a place for everything
When all that lives will certainly pass away
All that lives in this world has one true breath
That will return to its beginning place one day

Take not a moment in your daily life for granted
Heed carefully all the many warning signs you see
Repent and return your heart to my everlasting love
And your spirit will enjoy eternal times with me.
