Today I stood singin' songs and sayin' amen

I said goodbye to an old friend who seemed so young

He spent his life workin' hard to chase the dollar

Putting off until tomorrow the things he should have done 

2 Verse:
Made me stop and think what's the hurry, why the runnin?
I don't like what l'm becoming, gonna change my style 
Take my time, and not take it all for granted 
Cause we're only here for a little while

Chorus:
                   D
I'm gonna hold who needs holdin'
G                                D
Mend what needs mendin' 
G                             D
Walk what needs walkin'
                  E                              A
Though it means an extra mile

                   D
I'm gonna pray what needs prayin' 
G                            D
Say what needs sayin'
                        G     D               A      D
Cause we're only here for a little while
