all we are promised is today

all we are promised is today:
so be  careful in what you do and say:
pray before you speak:
let your words be strong and positive--not negative and weak:
think about all that you do:
then stay hollistic and humble too:
living in this world:
we just never really know:
when god chooses for us to go:

all we are promised is today:
so just be nice to others along the way:
at least be friendly and smile bright:
be a pleasure to be in someones sight:
you may make somebodies day:
just by simply being compassionate and asking them if they are feeling okay:
we never really know how much time anyone has left on earth:
never pause to tell someone how much that they are worth:

all we are promised is today:
so right now pause reflect and humbly pray:
pray that the world will be at peace:
and that the senseless fighting can end at least:
pray that people in every family can just get along:
let people know with family and loved ones there heart belongs:
let people reach out there heart and generously share:
then to a complete stranger show them your good heart and how much you really care:

all we are promised is today:
we know gods will not ours be done and come what may:
in your life in the greatest times and the lowest times always pray:
gods will not mine come what may:
let your life shine:
with gods love divine:
