Time flies and life pa**es Already I seem to hear The last trumpet singing Oh, come out of the grave You've scattered ashes and bones Oh, rise again, you souls Today we are born And tomorrow we die Time flies; life pa**es Today we appear And tomorrow we're gone Time flies; life pa**es Today we are born And tomorrow we die Time flies; life pa**es Today we appear And tomorrow we're gone Time flies; life pa**es Oh, rise and tell us, truly If we should have served
This world or the king in heaven To open our eyes to the truth That life is but a breath of wind That pa**es in a moment (chorus) This mortal life Has wings to fly so fast And pa**es at such speed The wind is thunderbolts The day is swiftly kidnapped And likewise, the night Winter and summer fade A mission to eternity Time which will not endure Devours us and measures our span All life is given from heaven And then is whisked away (chorus x2)
