ONE LIVE IS GOING

One life is going ebbing fast away
Only one given to live every day
Hours are passing by, time is going fast
One life is going, a life that will not last

Chorus

One life is given but taken every day
Time is ours for now but you cannot make it stay
The clock on the wall each ticking hour is showing
Its revolving hands tell that one life is going.

One life is going time to live it now
Days that melt away disappear somehow
Filled sometimes with joy or of much sorrow
One life is going, seek not out tomorrow

Chorus

One life is going, why not live for Him
When life is gone, its end will not be grim
Life is fulfilled given to the Master
One life is going, pace is growing faster

Chorus

One life is going, going, going gone
Day is ended and there is no new dawn
A soul is called to Heaven by the Son
One life is going, eternal life begun

Chorus
