The Power Of A Moment - Chris Rice Lyrics
What am I gonna be when I grow up?
How am I gonna make my mark in history?
And what are they gonna write about me when I'm gone?
These are the questions
That shape the way I think about what matters
Well I have no guarantee of my next heartbeat
My world's too big to make a name for myself
And what if no one wants to read about me when I'm gone?
It seems to me that
Right now's the only moment that matters
Chorus:
You know the number of my days
So come paint your pictures
On the canvas in my head
And come write your wisdom on my heart
Teach me the power of a moment
The power of a moment
The power of a moment
In your kingdom where the last is greatest
The weak are given strength and fools confound the wise
And forever brushes up against a moments time leaving impressions
And drawing me into what really matters
Chorus
I get so distracted by my bigger schemes
Show me the importance of the simple things
Like a word, a seed, a thorn, a nail
And a cup of cold water
Chorus
