Breaks your knees and leaves you so
The sun can burn you up
and wear you out
Its an angry summer
Theres no room to smile
When the face you make
just before you cry looks so young
like a child
The sun will set on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal
Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath,
a mist, a womb for whats to come
how soon forever arrives
The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal
Steadfast my love
the end is near
Just keep your eyes ahead
Grab hold of me
Ill help you there
Youre never on your own
Youre never all alone
Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come
How soon forever arrives
Breaks your knees and leaves you so
the sun can burn you up
and wear you out
Its an angry summer
Dont look at the past again
The first and last has made everything new
and you are too
so lift your hands
and let your story be told
Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come
How soon forever arrives
The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain (forever arrives)
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal (forever arives)
The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
(Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come)
How soon forever arrives
The sun can burn you up
and wear you out
Its an angry summer
Theres no room to smile
When the face you make
just before you cry looks so young
like a child
The sun will set on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal
Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath,
a mist, a womb for whats to come
how soon forever arrives
The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal
Steadfast my love
the end is near
Just keep your eyes ahead
Grab hold of me

I this the "life on earth," part is about how our bodies and lives on earth are only temporary and that God has a plan and has had a plan since we were conceived. Also, The "and prove to be a only a breath, a mist, a womb for whats to come.." is aboue how life on earth is only a test and depending how we live it and if we follow Jesus our Savior, we will find eternity with Him in heaven ("How soon FOREVER arrives.") The only thing that is "forever" is heaven.
