Make Time

Make time for things that matter most

The rest can wait

[rest]

The rest can wait

You can rest up when you are forced to lie down

Take a break only after you’ve lived

Because too many have never tried

surviving only in the present time

Not consumed with the past or the future

Only with the now and the here

Hear me?

Host your dreams of the future with urgent presence

The present time is that which matters most

Grab reigns and ride your future trains

And know they will always arrive on time

For timing is that which you decide

Though only in time will you learn

That you alone control your world

Allowing others the power you so desperately crave

Do not forget

It’s yours to give

Yours alone

The power over you derives from you

And from you all things begin

And end

So take this time and make it matter most

Host your dreams of the future with urgent presence

Cradle hopes you’ve held so long in vain

Constrain no more the goals you hold

Untold beauty awaits you

It calls for you like a siren that never sleeps

Weeps when you lose faith

Sweeps away past and future

Keeping you in the warmth and glory

Of right now
