Before the moment slips away...

Blink by Revive


Teach me to number my days

And count every moment before it slips away

Taking all the colors before they fade to gray

I don't want to miss even just a second more of this

~

It happens in a blink

It happens in a flash

It happens in the time it takes to look back

I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time

What is it I've done with my life

It happens in a blink

~

When it's all said and done

No one remembers how far we have run

The only thing that matters is how we have loved

I don't want to miss even just a second more of this

~

It happens in a blink

it happens in a flash

it happens in the time it takes to look back

I try to hold on tight but there's no stopping time

What is it I've done with my life

It happens in a blink

~

Slow down, slow down

Before today becomes our yesterday

Slow down, slow down

Before you turn around and it's too late

~

It happens in a blink

it happens in a flash

it happens in the time it takes to look back

I try to hold on tight but there's no stopping time

What is it I've done with my life

It happens in a blink

 
 
So much, I just want to - live. Something more than what I had yesterday. I want to live, ya know, for the first time.
 
Born Again by Third Day
 
 
 
Well today I found myself
After searching all these years
And the [woman] I saw
She wasn't at all who I thought she'd be
 
I was lost when You found me here
And I was broken beyond repair
Then You came along
And You sang Your song over me
 
It feels like I'm born again
It feels like I'm living
For the very first time
For the very first time in my life
 
Make a promise to me now
Reassure my heart somehow
That the love that I feel
Is so much more than anything
 
I've a feeling in my soul
And I pray that I'm not wrong
That the life I have now
Is only the beginning
 
It feels like I'm breathing
(for the very first time)
It feels like I'm moving
 
I wasn't looking for something more
Than what I had yesterday
Then You came to me and gave me
Life and a love that I never known; that I never felt before
 
 
And then I feel selfish again - like I've lost my faith. BUT! He's always there...
 
 
Beautiful History by Plumb
 
I have made mistakes
And I have been afraid
I have felt alone
Then you called my name

~

Things were crashing loudly
Happening all around me
But your still small voice
Was all that I could hear

~

"I am here
I'm holding you
You'll make it through this
I am here
I am here

~

I am here
I'm holding you
You'll make it through this
I am here
I am here"

~

Whenever you run away
Whenever you lose your faith
It's just another stroke of
The pen on the page

~

A lonely ray of hope
Is all that you need
To see
A beautiful history

~

Well I've been such a fool
When I have known the truth
I've wasted so much time
Doing what I want to do

~

I've been living solely
For myself and myself only
But your still small voice
Is whispering

~

Whenever you run away
Whenever you lose your faith
It's just another stroke
Of the pen on the page

~

A lonely ray of hope
Is all that you need
To see
A beautiful history

~

I toss and turn and scream
I try to do everything
With two feet on the ground
I just keep falling down again



I feel so far from home
Completely all alone
And then I hear you say
"I am here, I am here"

~

Whenever you run away
Whenever you lose your faith
It's just another stroke of
The pen on the page
~

A lonely ray of hope
Is all that you need
To see
A beautiful history

I love the Revive song. They play it constantly on our Christian radio station and I can't get enough of it.

In Christ,
Joshua :)

I love that song "Blink". It reminds us to not take anything for granted and to live like each day were our last. Sometimes I really think about what that means, to live each day as if it were my last. Blows my mind! There is so much that I should be doing that will matter for eternity, but...I don't :( . That's a great challenge for anyone to really live like that.
