As sung by Pastor & Mrs. Buck Ledford, Glory Road, LFLP 24 THIS LIFE (Luther Presley) This life is like the fleeting shadows of time So swiftly passing by A few short years and then the evening bells chime Appointed once to die CHORUS They say my days are numbered, God wills it so How far I still must travel I do not know My house must be in order at even tide Ready to meet the boatman at riverside Just like the flowers in the springtime must fade We, too, must disappear But if our faith in Jesus is firmly staid We'll live again somewhere CHORUS Some day will come the ending of life's short race This cross I shall lay down Then, oh, what rapture in that wonderful place Where peace and rest are found CHORUS
