EPHEMERAL

Lyrics:

[Intro,
Everything fades...
Everything changes...
Only one Kingdom remains.

[Verse 1]
Morning flowers bloom, then fall with the rain.
Youth burns bright, then it whispers your name.
Silver turns to dust, crowns lose their shine.
Time keeps reminding us nothing is mine.

Beauty is a shadow dancing in the light.
Riches take their wings and vanish overnight.
Every breath I borrow is a gift, not my own.
Every road on earth reminds me I'm not home.

[Pre-Chorus]
We're chasing echoes,
Holding grains of sand.
Trying to build forever
With temporary hands.

[Chorus]
Ephemeral...
Everything I see will pass away.
Ephemeral...
Night gives way to endless day.

Only Your love remains.
Only Your cross sustains.
Salvation is forever,
Christ alone will never fade.

[Verse 2]
Fame is just a whisper that the wind forgets.
Power is a candle that the dark collects.
The heart keeps searching for a place to rest,
Until it finds the Savior's perfect righteousness.

Every mansion crumbles.
Every empire falls.
Every clock keeps counting
Until eternity calls.

The mirror slowly changes,
The strongest hands grow weak.
Still Your grace keeps reaching
Every soul that dares to seek.

[Rap Verse]
I counted all my trophies, every title, every win.
None of them could wash away the weight I held within.
The world said, "Own it all," but it slipped right through my hands.
Now I'm standing on the Rock instead of sinking in the sand.

This life is just a vapor, here today then gone.
Every heartbeat is a countdown to another dawn.
Money couldn't buy me peace.
Status couldn't set me free.
Everything was temporary—
Then eternity found me.

Now I measure wealth by mercy,
Not by what my eyes can see.
'Cause the cross became the treasure
That will outlive history.

[Bridge, Orchestra Builds]
When the stars grow dim,
When the mountains fall,
When the earth is silent,
You'll still be Lord of all.

Stretch beyond the moment,
Beyond the final breath.
You conquered every grave.
You defeated death.

Your Kingdom has no ending.
Your promise never dies.
The Author of forever
Lives beyond all space and time.

[Final Chorus]
Ephemeral...
Every earthly treasure fades away.
Eternal...
Your mercy meets me every day.

I'll hold onto Your promise.
I'll cling to boundless grace.
In Christ I've found forever.
Nothing else can take His place.

[Outro,
Flowers fade...
Beauty fades...
Youth fades...
Riches fade...

But Your love remains.

Forever.

[End]
