Lyrics by Paula Vega Vondenstein
Teach me to number my days, Lord
Teach me to number my days
Life is but a vapor
We’re here one day and gone the next
Teach me to number my days, Lord
Teach me, Teach me to live, Lord,
Like there’s no tomorrow
Teach me, Teach me to give, Lord,
Like there’s no tomorrow
Teach me, Teach me to forgive, Lord,
Like there’s no tomorrow
Lord, Teach me to love
Like there is no tomorrow
No one is promised tomorrow
All we have is today
Oh Teach me, Lord, to number my days
Teach me to number my days, Lord
