Here and now

Feelings i've never known
places i've never been
what is this all about?
i just wish it would end
here and now

when will we die
when will death's angel knock on our door?
just hang on
soon the pain will disappear
and our bodies will lie lifeless on the ground
here and now

but whether life is worth living
or whether tomorrow is our final day
remember to pray for mercy
or death will be just the beginning
of all your pain
get on your knees, and pray
here and now

please, just hang on, my friends
judgment may be here soon
and you must try to get by in this life
love your neighbor, love yourself
love your Lord, and love your life, no matter how painful it may be
and be ready for the end of it all
right here, right now
