Cherish

I have no words to tell you how

To cherish the moment of here and now

But watch me closely and you will see

For such an art is first nature to me


I know not of time nor how it is measured

Save that the present is a thing to be treasured

And when it passes, I'll welcome the next

And savor it fully; that's what I do best


So come with me and I'll show you the way

To discover the secrets God has hid in this day

Close your eyes, just a moment or two

Be here and be thankful - that's all you must do
