Am I too busy chasing a temporary fortune
|
That my priorities get lost along the road
|
The seasons bring their moments
|
They linger for an instant
|
They never wait for you to pay the debts you owe
|
|
When I leave I want to leave a memory filled with love
|
The kind you don't forget
|
When I go I want to be known
|
As one who lived with no regrets
|
|
If life is like a flower
|
Am I doing all that's in my power
|
To leave a fragrance behind
|
It's time to count my blessings
|
Forget about my savings account for a while
|
|
I want them to say
|
What a glorious day
|
She had so much to gain
|
But she gave it away
|
And I want them to see something different in me
|
And that I'm going to be free
|
|
Some glad morning when this life is over
|
I'll fly away
|
To a home on God's celestial shore
|
I'll fly away
|
When I leave I want to leave a memory...
