For
all the beauty of this earth
For land and sea and the sky
We must give thanks for the life we live
As the days are passing by.
Chorus:
Times can be hard with
the cares of the world
And there's many things
left yet to do
You must take time for
the ones you love
And time for the sunset
too.
There's
a time for birth and a time to die
The way things always have been
And there's time to stop and appreciate
All things that go between.
Chorus:
She
sang on the porch to the western sky
Her sun was sinking low
She said you "You ought to take time for
the sunset, child"
Then she smiled as she turned to go.
Chorus:
