When It Comes to Livin’

There's only one thing that matters in life
In spite of the way it might seem
It's not when you're born, it's not when you die
But what you have done in between
So don't waste your days
In a useless parade of momentary matters
When we can change what forever remains

'Cause when it comes to livin'
We've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin'
It's just a matter of time
But everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time

Sometimes I feel like we're moving too fast
In search of the meaning of truth
With no place to turn and no one to ask
I wonder just who's leading who
But time after time
There's a courage I find to stand up to temptation
I'm building faith with each choice that I make

'Cause when it comes to livin'
We've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin'
It's just a matter of time, yeah, yeah
But everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time

One thing's for certain
This crazy world is searching
For a guiding light, oh, yeah
We can't deny that humanity is crying out
For Jesus Christ, yeah, yeah, yeah

When it comes to livin', yeah!
We've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin', whoa-oh...
It's just a matter of time, yeah, yeah
You know that everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time

When it comes to livin', yeah!
We've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin', whoa-oh...
It's just a matter of time, yeah, yeah, yeah
'Cause everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time
When it comes your time
