Live

Stuck in traffic, pretend you found your destination.
A fools paradise, logic's elimination.
Blinded from life's purpose but you got it figured out...
No doubt in your mind, thinking the end is what it's about.
God help you, cuz you don't need a map,
Sighted only on the destination, life's over in a snap.
Missing every turnoff, not stopping for the view...
Failing to learn the lessons, that you'll wanna take with you.

You've got to live...
You've got to grow...
Find joy in the journey,
And let the blessings flow...
...right now.

Called up to the challenge, and you've got work to do,
Created in His image, it's time to change your view.
A tree bearing the fruit of His love, you've got so much to give.
Let everyone come partake, by the way you choose to live.
Finding and retaining truth, ridding confusion and strife,
Emulating the example...The Way, The Truth, and The Life...
Set forth for the now, not just for the end...
If it was only about being without sin, why did life begin?

You've got to live...
You've got to grow...
Find joy in the journey,
And let the blessings flow...
...right now.

Perfect in His nature, has no selfish thing to do...
Endless power and love, and He offers it all to you.
Are you going to just take daddy's car, or you gonna earn the keys?
It would be so much clearer, if you could see what he sees.
Soak up all the sunshine, splash and play in the rain.
Tell him about all you learned...when you see him again.
Thank Him for His example, and how you tried to emulate,
Gaining character along the way, rewarded by more than fate.

You've got to live...
You've got to grow...
Find joy in the journey,
And let the blessings flow...
...right now.
