Shining in the Distance
All the gold and silver too
Shining in the distance
And all I want to spend with you
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Like hanging fruit upon the tree
Shining in the distance
Between the orchard and the seed
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
That sunlit house upon the hill
Shining in the distance
A price to hold, a cup to fill
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
And if my day should never come
Shining in the distance
Oh, although my way's barely begun
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
When bells of sorrow start their ringing
Shining in the distance
Oh, Lord, how can we keep on singing?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
Is it not time?
