Life is short and time is fleeting
The reigns of your life are open to all,
Make sure God’s the one who’s leading.

All your priorities should be in correct seating,
If they aren’t you’ll hit a wall,
Life is short and time is fleeting.

Calm down, no one’s competing,
Leave their purpose alone; answer your own call,
Make sure God’s the one who’s leading.

Sometimes your decisions lead to a beating,
But God can take whatever you haul,
Life is short and time is fleeting.

Lies can promise you all things pleasing,
But their promises are hollow, like a ball.
Make sure God’s the one who’s leading.

You never know when God has scheduled your meeting,
There may be no warning at all,
Life is short and time is fleeting,
Make sure God’s the one who’s leading.
