WHAT
IS
LIFE
BY
THE
WAY?
Verse 1
What
is
life
by
the
way?
Tell
me
if
you
know.
Today
we
are
standing,
tomorrow
we
are
gone.
Like
the
morning
dew
that
vanishes
away,
So
is
the
life
of
man
upon
the
earth.
We
labour
day
and
night
to
gather
wealth,
Building
houses,
storing
treasures
for
ourselves.
But
when
the
trumpet
sounds
and
our
journey
ends,
Another
man
enjoys
the
things
we
left
behind.
Chorus
What
is
life
by
the
way?
A
vapour
that
appears
and
fades
away.
Today
we're
here,
tomorrow
we're
gone,
Only
what
is
done
for
Christ
will
stand.
Live
for
Jesus
while
you
still
have
breath,
For
this
world
is
not
our
final
home.
Verse 2
We
struggle
to
become
the
greatest
of
all,
Seeking
power,
riches,
honour
and
fame.
We
fight
our
brothers
over
things
that
perish,
Yet
in
the
grave,
we
carry
nothing
home.
The
lands
we
fought
for,
another
will
inherit.
The
money
we
gathered,
another
will
spend.
The
clothes
we
treasured,
another
will
wear.
Only
our
works
will
follow
after
us.
Bridge
Turn
your
heart
to
Jesus
today,
Before
the
evening
of
life
shall
come.
Lay
your
treasures
up
in
heaven
above,
Where
neither
moth
nor
rust
can
destroy.
Final
Chorus
What
is
life
by
the
way?
A
journey
that
will
soon
be
over.
Choose
the
path
that
leads
to
eternal
life,
Walk
with
Jesus
every
day.
When
this
world
has
passed
away,
May
we
hear
Him
say, "
Well
done,
faithful
child."
What
is
life
by
the
way?
Live
for
Christ...
for
eternity.
ENDING
VOCAL:
All
you
laboured
for
All
your
certificates
All
your
wisdom
and
knowledge!
Is
this
true
life?
What
is
life
then?
The
end
of
the
matter
is
fear
God
and
keep
his
commandment.
