Until the Last Moment

I once strained to view all the day had to give

a baby’s mind, I wanted life to live

Each day wondrous and bright

Oh how I fought away the night.

Until the last moment,

there was so much to see

Until the last moment

Oh, slumber let me be

Until the last moment

I would finally unwind

Until the last moment

Blessed rest so kind

But life has many cares to chase after

We can lose track of living and laughter

Empty living fed my doubt

for what my life was about

Until the last moment

there was so much to lose

Until the last moment

Oh, it’s life that I chose

Until the last moment

When You opened my eyes

Until the last moment

I finally saw the lies

The days they shorten and winter draws near

There is much to do, the time is here

The voice is calling strong and deep

As I strain to hold what I keep

Until the last moment

there is so much to do

Until the last moment

Oh, to hold it like glue

Until the last moment

With all complete and done

Until the last moment

When the race is won.
