Lyrics
Just yesterday I wanted to leave this space Today you showing me all the work to do--in this place That's just like you--God! Hmm, Hmm, Hmm That’s just like you. I look at the lists of all the things to do In my mind and the master list Hmm, hmm, hmm will you help me to get through The pages, the piles, the papers too All this work that I’ve gotten from you. You whisper in my heart It’s a good thing, too So you better go on and do what you’ve got to do Tomorrow’s not promised The race--not to the swift So you better get busy Fo’ the environment shifts You from your vision, your dreams, and your goals Yes, they’re all God-given, but as you all ready know I have done my part, now the rest is up to you You better get busy and do what you gotta’ do Use action, not reaction, as the fuel of your passion you can have all the faith but without work no satisfaction Though still springtime in your life, Winter’s sure to come Don’t just sit there waiting for it Look up—the day has begun I have done my part, now the rest is up to you You better get busy and do what you gotta’ do Forget yesterday, the anger and it’s words Those awlful things you wish you had never heard Sticks and stones may very well break bones, Crushing words, not far behind, leave you feeling all alone It’s time to rebuild the temple, go to the throne Don’t buy into the lie that you are all alone. You’re surrounded by many, though silent, their hearts speak Will you be the light – that which I deeply seek Help me fill my days with love, laughter, and life And show others how to rise above all the strife I have done my part, now the rest is up to you (3rd time: say what) You better get busy and do what you gotta’ do (echo do 3rd time only) Yes, you have lots of work to do So stop playing games It’s me talking to you, no, you are not insane Stop running to and fro’, breathe, refrain I’ve all ready opened the door Your needs are right at your throat you can’t just name and claim it You’ve got to work Discover your treasure, (d d d)dig through the dirt Don’t look to be discovered, don’t you know it has no worth Don’t seek to go on the shows, where your gifts judged by those Who think they know Forget the Guinness World Make your own record I told you how to roll Your life is not a gamble, don’t you get the gist dress rehearsal does not even exist Curtain call has come into your midst, now it’s time for you to us show what you working with (echo working with only) I have done my part, now the rest is up to you copywriten2006.
