Just a Breath Away

by Jeremiah Nighthawk Taylor

Ain’t no time for loneliness,
There ain’t no time for doubt;
Gotta be the man I am,
Can’t hide no more; I’ve come out.

I love Him! I love Him!
He’s a thrill, I’ll do His will. This is what it’s all about.
I love Him! I love Him!
Christ, my lord and savior. And I’m gonna shout.

Most think that love is less than cheap,
Relationships come and go;
What good comes of this common coupling,
Heaven only knows.

But He gives me love. He gives me love
For my wife like He gave Adam up above.
He gives me love. He gives me love, 
When I need attention, she’s the one I’m thinking of.

And when the time is right,
Your children should discern,
That you’ve been around a while longer,
And they need to learn.

To give love. To give love,
Not be low users, draggin’ souls down in shame.
To give love. To give love.
To obey our God’s commandments; know that love is not a game.

One day He’ll snap His fingers,
And He’ll call me to my rest.
And though I want to stay, 
I know His will is what is best.

I need His love. I need His love.
His love eternal, my cup will overflow.
I need His love. I need His love.
Though I want to stay, He knows just when I need to go.

The love we’ve had in life,
It will go on.
And what’s more,
It will find holy reunion on life’s eternal shore.

It will not die. It will not die.
It will go on and on and on, and what’s more,
It will not die. It will not die.
It’ll find holy reunion on life’s eternal shore.

But while we walk on earth,
Amid the ruins at Satan’s feet,
Think of that land of milk and honey
And our eternal life so sweet.

For God’s children see only shadows
Of what waits for them above.
And if you’re livin’, then you’re dyin’
And just a breath away from love.

You’re just a breath away from love!
Take us home….
