The Light of Eternity

Give me one million problems
and I promise I'll worry about them all
Give me twenty-four hours
and I promise I'll fill them up
with all the things that are so small
But something tells me You made me
for so much more

I'm holding all of my life
up to the light
The light of eternity
I know what I should let go
I see what matters most
in the light of eternity
I want You to see me shine
in the light of eternity

This is one of those moments
when I'm weighing all my days
up to right here and right now
Am I doing anything that will last?
And if I'm not, then I just have to ask
Please show me how
'Cause I know You've made me
for so much more

So I'm holding all of my life
up to the light
The light of eternity
I know what I should let go
I see what matters most
in the light of eternity
I want You to see me shine
in the light of eternity

A new illumination changes everything, changes everything
And now my motivation is eternity with you
Give me twenty-four hours and I promise
I'm gonna give 'em all back to You

I'm holding all of my life
up to the light
The light of eternity
I know what I should let go
I see what matters most
in the light of eternity
I want You to see me shine
in the light of eternity
