vocals] (1 )

Life

on

earth

is

only

once…

Everything

we

see

will

pass

away.

The

house,

the

cars,

the

money,

the

fame…

One

day,

we

will

leave

them

all

behind.

Everything

will

pass

away…

Everything

will

pass

away…

I

want

to

become

rich,

I

want

to

buy

a

car,

I

want

to

build

a

mansion,

I

want

everybody

to

know

my

name.

But

my

brother,

my

sister,

Remember

that

this

earthly

life

is

temporary.

You

may

own

a

beautiful

house

today,

But

tomorrow,

someone

else

may

live

there.

You

may

drive

the

finest

car,

But

one

day,

you

will

leave

the

keys

behind.

You

will

leave

it

all

behind…

You

will

leave

it

all

behind… “

For

what

shall

it

profit

a

man,

if

he

shall

gain

the

whole

world,

and

lose

his

own

soul?”

Everything

on

earth

will

pass

away,

Money

will

pass

away,

Houses

will

pass

away,

Cars

will

pass

away,

But

the

soul

will

stand

before

God.

Jesus,

help

us!

Jesus,

save

our

souls!

Teach

us

to

number

our

days!

Landlord,

you

count

your

properties: “

Room

and

parlour —

two

hundred

thousand,

Eight

hundred

thousand…” “

Two-bedroom

flats —

Five

hundred

thousand,

Two

million…” “

Three-bedroom

flats —

Eight

hundred

thousand,

Three

million…”

You

count

the

houses.

You

count

the

money.

You

count

the

properties.

But

who

will

live

in

them

when

your

journey

on

earth

is

over?

Who

will

live

there?

Who

will

live

there?

Who

will

live

there?

Who

will

live

there?

You

say, “

Pay

me

my

money!”

You

say, “

I

will

give

you

a

quit

notice!”

You

increase

the

rent

year

after

year.

But

remember…

One

day,

you

too

will

receive

your

final

notice.

Not

from

a

landlord…

But

from

time.

One

day…

we

will

go… “

For

dust

you

are,

and

to

dust

you

shall

return.”

All

the

houses

you

built,

You

cannot

carry

them.

All

the

money

you

saved,

You

cannot

carry

it.

All

the

clothes

you

wore,

You

cannot

carry

them.

Everything

you

called “

mine,”

You

will

leave

behind.

Nothing

belongs

to

us

forever…

Nothing

belongs

to

us

forever…

Nothing

belongs

to

us

forever…

Nothing

belongs

to

us

forever…

Life

is

only

once,

Life

is

only

once.

Use

your

life

for

God.

Use

your

wealth

to

help

someone.

Love

your

neighbor.

Forgive

while

you

can.

Because

tomorrow

is

not

promised.

Jesus,

remember

us…

Jesus,

guide

our

hearts…

When

our

journey

is

over,

Let

us

be

with

You…

Everything

will

away…

Only

God

remains…

Amen…
