Forever Is a Long Long Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Forever is a long long time We can't measure it in terms of time and space But the spirit that is yours is eternal Living on from race to race and place to place [Verse 2] Forever is a long long time And the spirit that is you will never die For the spirit does not end with the body It goes on to teach us how and who and why [Bridge] It's so easy to see why we're despondent What purpose does all our efforts have? If we believe that life ends with the body Then our outlook will most certainly be drab [Verse 3] Forever is a long long time And one body hardly seems enough to me Just one lifetime to complete our desires All our hopes and dreams of what we'd like to be [Verse 4] Forever is a long long time And our dreams will take us where we want to go With the action and the faith to propel them Our progression should be anything but slow [Verse 5] Forever is a long long time And before us lies a vast eternity So don't worry if your plans are disrupted For the spirit know what's best for you and me [Bridge] When we're planning the dreams that we envision We're anxious to see them come about The spirit that's within will always guide us If by prayer and faith we rid ourself of doubt [Verse 6] Forever is a long long long time And the time will come when all desire's passed When our bodies have fulfilled our ambitions And we settle down to seek the spirit's task And we settle down to seek the spirit's task [Outro] To seek the spirit's task To seek the spirit's task To seek the spirit's task
