Seize The Day (Live) - Carolyn Arends[00:00:00]
Written by:Carolyn Arends[00:00:01]
I know a girl who was schooled in Manhattan[00:00:21]
She reads dusty books and learns phrases in Latin[00:00:25]
She is an author or maybe a poet[00:00:31]
A genius but it's just this world doesn't know it[00:00:37]
She works on her Novel most everyday[00:00:43]
If you laugh she will say[00:00:49]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:00:56]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:01:02]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:01:08]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:01:13]
Seize the day[00:01:18]
Well I know a doctor a fine young physician[00:01:30]
Left his six figure job for a mission position[00:01:35]
He's healing the sick in an African clinic[00:01:41]
He works in the dirt and writes home to the cynics[00:01:46]
He says we work through the night so most everyday[00:01:56]
As we watch the sun rise we can say[00:02:01]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:02:09]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:02:15]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:02:20]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:02:26]
Seize the day[00:02:31]
Well I know a man who's been doing some thinking[00:02:43]
He's as bitter and cold as the whiskey he's drinking[00:02:48]
He's talking 'bout fear about chances not taken[00:02:54]
If you listen to him you can hear his heart breaking[00:02:59]
He says one day you're a boy and the[00:03:08]
Next day you're dead[00:03:12]
I wish way back when someone had said[00:03:14]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:03:22]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:03:28]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:03:33]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:03:39]
Seize the day[00:03:44]
Well one thing I've noticed wherever I wander[00:03:58]
Everyone's got a dream he can follow or squander[00:04:03]
You can do what you will with the days you are given[00:04:09]
I'm trying to spend mine on the business of living[00:04:14]
So I'm singing my songs off of any old stage[00:04:24]
You can laugh if you want[00:04:29]
I'll still say[00:04:31]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:04:37]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:04:43]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:04:48]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:04:54]
Seize the day[00:04:59]
