Words & music by lowell alexander      This day is fragile - soon it will end   And once it has vanished, it will not come again   So let us love with a love pure and strong   Before this day is gone      This day is fleeting when it slips away   Not all our money can buy back this day   So let us pray that we might be a friend   Before this day is gone      This day is fleeting   When it slips away   Not all our money can buy back this day   So let us pray that we might be a friend   Before this day is spent      This day we're given is golden   Let us show love   This day is ours for one moment   Let us sow love      This day is frail - it will pass by   So before it's too late to recapture the time   Let us share love, let us share god   Before this day is gone   Before this day is gone
