 Life is Too Precious

Life is Too Precious

Life is too precious
I'm finding this out
There are so many things
That I can do without

I've wasted many minutes
Hours, days and years
And when I look back
My eyes fill up with tears

We need to take it easy
Enjoy life while we can
We need to help our neighbor
Every woman, child and man

So many friends of mine
Are suffering day to day
I feel like I am helpless
I haven't words to say

They treasure every minute
And every breaking day
To see another morning
They ask this when they pray

So while I am still healthy
I'll do the best I can
To make their lives much better
And lend a helping hand

And when the time is ready
My body's had enough
I hope that all will say
I gave them all my love
