Lyrics:

Child, as I look in your eyesYou know my life seems like a minuteThere I find living proofOf all the wonder life hold in itIn the past I thought I had to learnAny good that comes from this life we're livingHere and now, let us realizeThat this life's gift and it's already been given[Chorus:]Someday when you stand in the middleLike it or not you're gonna look both waysYou're gonna find that time is a riddleWhere days turn into yearsAnd years into the blink of an eyeChild, once I saw a man on the tvLead a nation up a mountainHe said, children, look over yonderThe flame of truth is burning brightlySometimes you look so far, there's only so much timeOnly so many of us are gonna get thereHere and now is all we really haveBut if we can make it countWe got no reason to worry[Chorus]You're gonna walk that mileYou're gonna be in that numberYou're gonna make that journeyJust like the good book saysThere's a time to be born, a time to cross overYou can be sure it's in the blink of an eye
