Do you ever feel like life moves too fast, and moments that you enjoy go by in a blink? I know I do. Sometimes it’s really hard to live in the moment, and before you know it, we just have a bunch of memories. What if we lived in the moment, instead of the past, or hoping for what’s going to happen in the days to come?
Today’s Worship Wednesday post is about the now-disbanded pop band Revive from Australia, and their song “Blink”. I find this a great song to help me slow down and enjoy the moment.
I was trying to think of what lyrics I could post from this song to share with you all, but I couldn’t just pick out a small portion of “Blink”. The full lyrics are below, hopefully they resonate with you as well today, and that you will live in the moment. Because, before you know it, your life will happen in a “Blink”. Check out the music video below as well.
Teach me to number my days
And count every moment
Before it slips away
Take in all the colors
Before they fade to grey
I don’t want to miss
Even just a second
More of this
It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
When it’s all said and done
No one remembers
How far we have run
The only thing that matters
Is how we have loved
I don’t want to miss
Even just a second
More of this
It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
Slow down
Slow down
Before today becomes
Our yesterday
Slow down
Slow down
Before you turn around
And it’s too late.
It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink, it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
