It only takes a moment for me to get out of control

And a moment of confession for you to make me whole

Each moment that I spend with you becomes my Holy Goal

Now moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul

Moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul!

 

Once I see each moment as an opportunity

To live that time before the throne, it will be like heaven for me

I can give my heart in praise to the author of my days

And so momentarily I can glimpse eternity!

 

It only takes a moment for life to take its toll

Anf it only takes a moment for you to make me whole

Each moment that I spend with you becomes my Holy Goal

Now moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul

Moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul!

 

I can string them all together like pearls of priceless worth

To form a strand of precious times that will last beyond this earth

For the most important things like birth and death and marriage brings

To that moment that they fulfil promises that linger still.

 

It only takes a moment for life to take its toll

Anf it only takes a moment for you to make me whole

Each moment that I spend with you becomes my Holy Goal

Now moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul

Moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul!

 

Moments, they may come and go, and even worlds may pass

But the promises of our faithful God are true and forever last

So once we make up our minds once for all in a moment of time

We are reborn from above-to begin again in perfect love!

 

It only takes a moment for life to take its toll

Anf it only takes a moment for You to make me whole

Each moment that I spend with You becomes my Holy Goal

Now moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul

Moment by moment you are Lord of my Soul!
