Living in the Present

LIVING IN THE PRESENT

As the days go by, we like to go wandering
Back, over roads where we have been
Then we look ahead to places we would like to be
Like to see, come tomorrow

Dreams and Illusions
Distractions and delusions
Keep us all from living in the present
Keep us all from living in His Presence

Do we really listen to the one in front of us?
Or, are our thoughts on someone else
Do we really see the thing that we are looking at?
Or, are our eyes on something else

Worries and confusion
Pleasures in profusion
They keep us all from living the present
They keep us all from living in His Presence

As the days go by
More days of restless wandering
Squandering, all our time
We start to realize that life is here and now
Near and how
We should live it, by killing those…

Dreams and Illusions
Distractions and delusions
They keep us all from living in the present
They keep us all from living in His Presence

Worries and confusion
Pleasures in profusion
Keep us all from living in the present
Keep us all from living in His Presence
Keep us all from living in the present
Keep us all from living in His Presence
