Just twenty four short hours
Are what we have today
Fourteen hundred – forty Minutes
To do and speak and pray
Eighty-six thousand four hundred seconds
To never come again
The clock is ticking ticking
And just memories remain

The words we choose to speak
Will echo-echo on
And what we choose to do
Is somewhere written down
But God’s goodness and His mercy
Are Helpers ever true
Through the hours of our day
While His Light shines all night through
His Light Shines All Night Through by Peter Caligiuri © 2020 All rights reserved
