Nothing lasts for ever - except the LOVE of GOD br Tomorrow all forgotten - the streets where once I trod br Even in my lifetime - I've seen things come and go br The school where I was taught - places I used to know. br Buildings fine and monuments - now lie beneath the sod br Nothing lasts forever - except the LOVE of GOD. br br Nothing lasts forever - except the LOVE of GOD br The barns I stored my corn in - the horses I once shod br The fields we sowed our wheat in - all concrete covered Malls br Now an ugly motorway - the woods I played with Pals br Where is she now the sacred cow - of Farmer Ormerod? br Nothing lasts forever - except the LOVE of GOD. br br Change and decay and building grey - in all around I see br I only hope the folks i know - can se the change in me. br For since I put my trust in GOD - my future's far from bleak br I know this Earth will pass away - so Heaven's love I seek br The Lord is my Good Shepherd - I trust His staff and rod br For - Nothing lasts for ever - except the LOVE of GOD. br br John Knight 2 March 2011.
