More To This Life - Steven Curtis Chapman

Today I watched in silence as people passed me by

And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes;

But they all looked at me as if to say

Life just goes on

The old familiar story told in different ways

Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave;

Dream your dreams tomorrow because today

Life must go on

But there’s more to this life than living and dying

More than just trying to make it through the day;

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see

And there’s more than this life alone can be

He takes care of his family, he takes care of his work

And every Sunday morning he takes his place at the church;

And somehow he still feels a need to search

But life just goes on

Tonight he lies in silence staring into space

And looks for ways to make tomorrow better than today

But in the morning light it looks the same;

Life just goes on

But there’s more to this life than living and dying

More than just trying to make it through the day;

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see

And there’s more than this life alone can be

So where do we start to find every part

Of what makes this life complete;

If we turn our eyes to Jesus we’ll find

Life’s true beginning is there at the cross where He died

He died to bring us.

.

But there’s more to this life than living and dying

More than just trying to make it through the day;

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see

And there’s more than this life alone can be
