Ephemeral Yet Eternal

The Flower of life will fade
This is the way mankind is made
The bells of death will ring
In Summer time, Winter and Spring

In this world we seem to be on holiday
(Be) cause nobody is here to stay
The Lord has booked a place for each one of us
And if we listen carefully, we can hear Him telling us

Remember and be ready for that day that is to come
When you will open your door to the angel and say welcome
Live your life as if you're immortal
Yet live it as a real mortal

Mankind will pass away, they'll answer the Voice
The Lord will call them and they'll have no choice
Only their deeds on earth will be remembered by their kinds
Yet were they not models, they'd have no room in people's minds

So let's live caring and fair to others, be they black or white
Let's resist even in the darkness of the night
When lust, hatred, the devil's incarnation, are tempting us
If we want the world to remember us…
