I wrote this song at Young Life camp one (Sharp Top Cove) morning sitting on a gigantic rock in the shade of the creek.
lyrics
IT’S ALMOST OVER
No matter where I look around
From the clouds down to the ground
I don’t see the place that I’ll call home
This is a temporary stay,
A camping trip, just a few days
And it won’t be long until it’s time to go
It’s almost over, we’re almost done
So give away your life, and deeply love someone
It’s almost over, the Lord is near
And we don’t have much time to live like strangers here
No matter how hard I might try
this world will never satisfy
So I don’t want to let myself be fooled
And I’ll never keep my head
If I love the trinkets of the dead
So, unless it’s You, I don’t want to be ruled
