The Very Next Thing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I spend all my time
Dreaming what the future's gonna bring
When all of this time
There's a world passing by
Right in front of me
Set my sights on tomorrow
While I'm tripping over today
Who says big things
Are somewhere of in the distance
I don't want to look back
Just to see all the times
That i missed it
I want to be here and now
Starting right here right now
With the very next words
Of love to be spoken
To the very next heart
That's shattered and broken
To the very next way
You're gonna use me
Show me the next thing
I'll do the next thing
Let me very next breath
Breathe out a song of praise to you
With my very next step
Be on a road
That was planned by you
Lord wherever you're leading me
that's where I want to be
With the very next words
Of love to be spoken
To the very next heart
That's shattered and broken
To the very next way
You're gonna use me
Show me the next thing
I'll do the next thing
Eyes wide open
I see you working
All around me
You're on the move
Step by step
I'm running to meet you
In the next thing
Eyes wide open
I see you working
All around me
You're on the move
Step by step
I'm running to meet you
In the next thing
In the next thing
The very next thing
