If Tomorrow Never Comes

If tomorrow never comes
Tell them I did my best
Unloaded all in my chest
For the benefits of them to come
And a light journey to my rest

If tomorrow never comes
With pride, I can look back
And say that I left my mark
I dinned with the devil
Without sinking in evil
Flew with the Angels
And partnered them to every angle

If tomorrow never comes
There will only be one debt I owe
No matter how much I strive
Paying in full, I never arrive
It’s the debt to love, I know

If tomorrow never comes
Let everyone who cares to know
Blame me not that in this life
I couldn’t repay all I owe
For deep in my heart I do know
I lived without a strife
Keeping a debt that’s meant for eternal life

If tomorrow never comes
Let everyone know
That as our Christ cleared our mess
I loved even he that didn’t know
Though I never could clear his mess

Above all, let everyone know
That I loved everything about life
The Ups and Downs
The Shirts and Gowns
Everything that was shared
Everyone that really cared
That is, if tomorrow never comes.
