Like dew that settles on the grass
Like the flower that blooms in the night
Like the leaves that the autumn devours
Like the fog that fades in the light
Flickering semblance, evanescent
A vanishing vapor in the wind
The sun will rise and darkness dies
Life is fragile unto its very end
Life is fleeting, life is fleeting
These fugitive days surely pass
Time is transcient, momentary
So savor the moments while they last
Bridge
Grass withers and flowers fade
We begin to die as we take our first breath
A mist that rises and then is gone
But in Christ our end is not met in our death
Life is fleeting , life is precious
We are simply servant stewards of our days
Our very present counts forever
And the unseen light must define our ways
Though we will sleep in the dust
Time to eternity is bound
Every secret thing will be revealed
When we rise again and our new life is found
Life is fleeting, life is fleeting
These fugitive days surely pass
Time is transcient, momentary
So savor the moments while they last
