We Are Only Passing Through

Lyrics

We Are Only Passing Through Verse 1 We came like morning through the trees, A breath upon an endless sea, We hold this life with open hands, Like footprints fading from the sand. Pre-Chorus And every road we’ve ever known Is leading somewhere past our own… Chorus We are only passing through, Underneath this endless blue, Here today, then called away, Like the night gives way to day. So hold me close while we are here, Love me through the changing years, This world was never ours to keep— We are only passing through. Verse 2 The years will turn, the seasons change, The faces we have loved will fade, But every kindness, every tear, Leaves something that will linger here. Pre-Chorus And when the road grows dim ahead, We’ll walk by faith beyond the edge… Chorus We are only passing through, Underneath this endless blue, Here today, then called away, Like the night gives way to day. So hold me close while we are here, Love me through the changing years, This world was never ours to keep— We are only passing through. Bridge — Lead + Choir Lead: When my final evening falls… Choir: We are passing through… Lead: When I hear that distant call… Choir: We are passing through… Lead: I will leave these shadows here, There is nothing left to fear— For beyond this fleeting view, There’s a home we’re passing to. Final Chorus — Full Choir We are only passing through, Toward a morning ever new, Every sorrow, every mile, Only lasts a little while. So hold me close while we are here, Love me through the changing years, For somewhere past this fading blue, There’s a home we’re passing to. Outro — Choir Passing through… Passing through… This world was never ours to keep, We are only passing through.
