[Verse 1]

There are moments in this life

When it's hard to carry on

Friends and close relationships

Somewhere on the other side

[Verse 3]
C
As I read the morning paper
G
It hits me once again
A#add6
We're surrounded by the evil
F
Of a world that's dead in sin
Fm
And the only sane conclusion
C
That my crazy mind can reach
F#dim F
Is to set my heart on heaven
Csus2 G
And to live the things I preach
[Verse 4]

So I'm living every moment

As if this day was my last

Put my treasures where my heart is
F
And forget about the past
Fm
And if Jesus comes tomorrow
C
I'll be ready to depart

As He leads me to my mansion

I'll be following my heart

I've tried to go the distance
Em7
But it's more than I can bear

They say there's no more crying

And no more dying there

I've held on to the promise

Who so ever will believe

Will have life that's never ending
