Seize The Day - Carolyn Arends[00:00:00]
Written by:Carolyn Arends[00:00:01]
I know a girl who was schooled in Manhattan[00:00:12]
She reads dusty books and learns phrases in Latin[00:00:17]
She is an author or maybe a poet[00:00:23]
A genius but it's just this world doesn't know it[00:00:28]
She works on her novel most everyday[00:00:35]
If you laugh she will say[00:00:40]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:00:48]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:00:54]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:00:58]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:01:05]
Seize the day[00:01:09]
Well I know a doctor a fine young physician[00:01:21]
Left his six figure job for a mission position[00:01:26]
He's healing the sick in an African clinic[00:01:31]
He works in the dirt and writes home to the cynics[00:01:37]
He says we work through the night so most everyday[00:01:46]
As we watch the sun rise we can say[00:01:51]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:01:59]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:02:05]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:02:10]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:02:16]
Seize the day[00:02:21]
I know a man who's been doing some thinking[00:02:32]
He's as bitter and cold as the whiskey he's drinking[00:02:37]
He's talking 'bout fear about chances[00:02:43]
Not taken[00:02:47]
If you listen to him you can hear[00:02:48]
His heart breaking[00:02:52]
He says one day you're a boy and[00:02:57]
The next day you're dead[00:03:00]
I wish way back when someone had said[00:03:02]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:03:11]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:03:16]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:03:21]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:03:27]
Seize the day[00:03:32]
Well one thing I've noticed wherever I wander[00:03:46]
Everyone's got a dream he can follow or squander[00:03:51]
You can do what you will with the days you are given[00:03:57]
I'm trying to spend mine on the business of living[00:04:02]
So I'm singing my songs off of any old stage[00:04:11]
You can laugh if you want I'll still say[00:04:16]
Seize the day seize whatever you can[00:04:25]
'Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand[00:04:30]
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand[00:04:35]
Then nothing will stand in your way[00:04:41]
Seize the day[00:04:46]
