Death awaits us all as we walk this path

Though different endings, in His light or in His wrath

We never know what awaits

For every loved one lost I see the pain in every heart

And still we all must pay the cost our sin has kept us 

apart



So you've got the world

Gripping your life in your hands

Taking for granted the breath in your lungs

But death has a voice

Singing to us "Make your stand!"

Death is ever certain we all share this fate

I watched you go away Know it was coming

Vanished and we didn't know it, we didn't know it

I sat and watched and prayed, we didn't know it, we 

didn't know it

God has called your name, we didn't know it



In death we see that we are just as vapors

And life has become what we all do savor

When all is lost and taken away 

Endless nights to weep and pray

We're letting it all out still it feels so quiet



For every loved one lost I see the pain in every heart

And still we all must pay the cost our sin has kept us 

apart

Still in these bodies feeling fragile with the same 

fate

Never knowing if our time fills or death awaits

While our hearts are pounding inside we'll fight and 

not break

To my King I will confide my everything



In death we see that we are just as vapors

And life has become what we all do savor

When all is lost and taken away 

Endless nights to weep and pray

We're letting it all out still it feels so quiet



Still I'll walk Your path for You write my story

And I'll count the days till I see Your glory

You will clothe us in spotless white

I'll sing to Your glories, what a beautiful sight

A host of saints and all the angels

With no constraints and nothing painful

We'll sing these songs and You will listen

In the Book of Life our names are written
