Tomorrow

Dear god I know I take for granted that tomorrow will be given to me And I also take for granted your grace and your mercy I know I mess up even though I hear your warning words But because at times I'm stubborn I pretend the warning I never heard At times it may seem that I put you to the test And at the same time wonder why I'm not blessed But you also know my struggles I also take advantage of your forgiving nature And at times forget that I am the created and not the creator But I also understand that tomorrow is promised to no man But yet I still don't live the best that i can Perhaps I think my time to die is not yet Or perhaps that loads of achievements I have not met Whatever it is I must believe I'm invincible As why else will I not heed to His call Tomorrow it is, tomorrow will be the day Tomorrow it is when I turn round and say Yes lord I accept you in my heart Yes lord I'm ready for my new start But tomorrow came and I was nowhere to be found Tomorrow came but those words I never uttered a sound Perhaps I wasn't ready, maybe need a bit more time Not realizing I was created to worship the divine I just needed to party a little bit more Not understanding what tomorrow had in store Tomorrow wasn't mine, was never guaranteed to be Tomorrow came for millions, it never came for me My time was up, my days had a number Tomorrow wasn't given to me by he who neither sleeps nor slumber If I could look back at yesterday and realize my mistake I wouldn't wait for tomorrow I'd grab the moment with haste To accept you lord in my life and live right As tomorrow is a day I would like to glimpse in my sight
