Verse 1
You gotta' know what I mean
When I tell you that time
May be passin' you by and you don't notice it.

You're gonna know what I mean
When you wake up and find
That your life's been lived and you can't change it

Chorus
It happened to me,
And I'm here to say
There's more to life
Than what you're livin' today.
I want ya' to know,
I want ya' to find
That Jesus is real.
Take Him while there's still time.

Verse 2
Take a good look at your life.
Tell me what you describe.
Ain't much better than strollin' into nowhere.

If this day was your last,
Would you mind if I asked
If you knew where you're goin' when it's over?

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Jesus is more than a preacher whose words leave you condemned to the grave.
He'll take a man who is lost, and help him to find his way.
Just ask Him into your heart and He'll save you today.
