Time Collab With Jo

Every moment is fleeting fast The present will soon become past God has gifted this time to man To live and use for a short span All our life we wasted our time We did not know this in our prime Time is priceless not like a dime We now have lived a full lifetime Our clock slowly ticking away Minutes and seconds not to stay What's done for God is eternal Infinite gift in life's journal Wasted time what will we all pay What words are now needed to say Tell God we are sorry and pray I hope heaven is on our way
