[Verse 1]
He prayed the prayer one Sunday morning
He really meant the words, he said
She prayed and gave her heart to Jesus
One night while kneeling by her bed
So many start on this journey
But they never make it out of the door
Their lives are caught in a moment in time
But there's so much more...
[Chorus]
Than living for the moment
When He's given us a lifetime
Living for the moment
Letting hours pass right by
(Don't let them pass you by)
It's gonna take forever to discover
All that Jesus has in store (Jesus has in store)
So, live for every moment
And live every moment for the Lord
[Verse 2]
There are some mountains on our pathway
Sometimes we reach the very top
We like the feeling of the moment
Sometimes that's where we'd like to stop
But we've been given these moments
To encourage us along the way
Now Jesus wants us to move ahead
Growin' every day
[Chorus]
Not living for the moment
When He's given us a lifetime
Living for the moment
Letting hours pass right by
(Don't let them pass you by)
It's gonna take forever to discover
All that Jesus has in store (store for every moment)
So, live for every moment
And live every moment for the Lord
[Bridge]
This is the day
That the Lord has created
This is the day that He has made
To take us where our faith
Has never been before
[Chorus]
So, live for every moment
'Cause He's given us a lifetime
Live for every moment
Don't let a minute pass you by
(Don't let them pass you by)
It's gonna take forever to discover
All that Jesus has in store (store for every moment)
So, live for every moment
And live every moment for the Lord
[Outro]
(Moment)
We gotta live for every moment
(Moment)
You know He's given us a lifetime
Yeah, yeah
Moment
Oh, you know He's given us a lifetime
Won't you live for every moment
Don't let those minutes
Those precious minutes pass you by
(Don't let them pass you by)
Live for every moment
