There's only one thing that matters in life
In spite of the way it might seem
It's not when you're born it's not when you die
But what have you done in between
So don't waste your days in a useless parade
Of momentary matters
When we can change what forever remains
'Cause when it comes it livin' we've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin' it's just a matter of time
But everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time
Sometimes I feel like we're moving too fast
In search of the meaning of truth
And no place to turn and no one to ask
I wonder just who's leading who
But time after time there's a courage I find
To standing up to temptation
I'm building faith with each choice that I make
'Cause when it comes it livin' we've only got one life
And when it comes to dyin' it's just a matter of time yeah yeah
But everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time
One thing's for certain this crazy world is searching
For a guiding light oh yeah
We can't deny that humanity is crying out for Jesus Christ
We need to realize
When it comes it livin' we've only got one life
When it comes to dyin' it's just a matter of time
You know that everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time
When it comes it livin' we've only got one life
When it comes to dyin' it's just a matter of time
'Cause everybody's got a choice to make
For we all can make a difference in life
Are you gonna take a stand for what's right
When it comes your time, when it comes your time
