Story Behind The Song
As you get older you think more about dying. Feeling a little sorry for myself I asked myself where did all my time go.I was reminded that we never die, we fall asleep. One day I will wake up to find I am among friends and family in Heaven. We are only passing through in this life. A promise our Lord keeps!

Lyrics
I DO NOT KNOW WHERE MY TIME GOES,
BUT THIS CHILD IN ME WILL NEVER GROW OLD.
AND THOUGH I FEEL YOUNGER IN MY MIND
I CAN NOT STOP THE HANDS OF TIME.
BUT I'M NEVER GONNA DIE,
I'LL JUST FALL ASLEEP,
THIS IS THE PROMISE OUR LORD KEEPS.
WE'RE ONLY PASSING THROUGH
I'M GONNA SPEND "FOREVER WITH YOU".
SOMETIMES LIFE CAN BE UNFAIR.
AND THOUGH GOD IS GOOD AND ALWAYS NEAR,
THERE ARE JUST NO GUARANTEES,
OF WHAT MAY COME OR WHAT WILL BE.
BUT I'M NEVER GONNA DIE,
I'LL JUST FALL ASLEEP,
THIS IS THE PROMISE OUR LORD KEEPS.
WE'RE ONLY PASSING THROUGH
I'M GONNA SPEND "FOREVER WITH YOU".
THE LORD WILL COME LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT,
BUT I CAN SAY THAT'LL BE ALRIGHT.
WE'RE ONLY PASSING THROUGH
I'M GONNA SPEND "FOREVER WITH YOU".
WE'RE ONLY PASSING THROUGH
I'M GONNA SPEND "FOREVER WITH YOU".
