Live Right

(album: Rich Mullins - 1986)

So much life is slipping past you
You better sink in and take a hold
So many things you say you think you'd like to do
About the things you think you know
Well that road that's paved with good intentions
May never reach the streets of gold
No no no

So much love is on the inside
Better give in and let it out
Any fool could tell you why
But let the Spirit show you how
Speak your heart and maybe you could shed light
On the shadow of someone's doubt
Yeah yeah yeah

So don't hold out don't let these chances pass you by
Here's your life you're gonna get it right
Live like you'll die tomorrow
Die knowing you'll live forever live right
Love like you'll leave tomorrow
Believing love lasts forever live right

The things you grab will never last you
Once they get you in their hold
What once were your slaves become your masters
They burn you up and leave you cold
Can you tell me what you have to profit
If you gain the world and lose your soul
Oh no no

But don't hold out don't let these chances pass you by
Here's your life you're gonna get it right
Live like you'll die tomorrow
Die knowing you'll live forever live right
Love like you'll leave tomorrow
Believing love lasts forever live right

You gotta live

Don't pull away from what's ahead of you and don't you look back
Look forward in faith and hope will pull you through
To a love that will last

Live like you'll die tomorrow
Die knowing you'll live forever live right
Love like you'll leave tomorrow
Believing love lasts forever live right

(Live right you gotta live)

Live like you'll die tomorrow (live like you're living right)
Die knowing you'll live forever live right
Love like you'll leave tomorrow
Believing love lasts forever live right

(Live right you gotta live)

Live like you'll die tomorrow (live like you're living right)
Die knowing you'll live forever live right
Love like you'll leave tomorrow
Believing love lasts forever live right

(You gotta live right you gotta live)
(Live like you're living right)
(Live right)
(Believing that love will last)
(Live right you gotta live right)
(You gotta live)
