More to this life --- Clay Aiken

Today I watched in silence
As people passed me by
And I strained to see if there was something
Hidden in their eyes

But they all looked back at me as if to say,
"Life just goes on.."

The old familiar story
Told in different ways,
"Make the most of your own journey
From the cradle to the grave
Dream your dreams tomorrow
Because today
Life must go on.."

Oh, and there's more to this life
Than living and dying
More than just trying to make it through the day
More to this life
More than these eyes alone can see
And there's more
Than this life alone for me

He takes care of his family
He takes care of his work
And every Sunday morning
He takes his place at the church
But sometimes he still feels the need to search
"Life just goes on.."

At night he lies in silence
Staring into space
Looks for ways to make tomorrow
Better than today
But in the morning light
He looks to say,
"Life must go on.."

Oh, and there's more to this life
Than living and dying
More than just trying to make it through the day
More to this life
More than these eyes alone can see
And there's more
Than this life alone for me

Where do we start
To find every part
Of what makes this life complete?
If we turn our eyes
To Jesus we'll find
Life's true beginning
Is there at the cross
Where he died
Where he died

To bring us
More to this life
Than living and dying
More than just trying to make it through the day
More to this life
More than these eyes alone can see

And there's more
To this life
Than living and dying
More than just trying to make it through the day
More to this life
More than these eyes alone can see

And there's more
Than this life alone can be

More to this life

More than livin' and dyin'

More than tryin' to make it
Through another day
