Just For a Day

[Barethetone]

Does anyone know the lyrics to this song? The chorus starts: "But for a day and a day will last forever..." It also says something about waiting by the river just for a day.

[Pastor Joe R Blevins]

Just for a day


Im going too rest by the river where the shadows
never fall, and the darkness never hide the light of day,
where the lamb will light that city and the evening never come,
Im going too rest by the river just far a day


Chorus
Just far a day and a day will last for ever, and the darkness
of the gloomie night will never come again,
I set quitely by the streem of life, where time wont slip away,
Im going to rest by the river just far a day.


I would like too talk with mother about the happy days of old,
but time will never linger on, i see her days swiftly passing by
in the morning she may be gone, Im going too rest by the river just far a day

[Barethetone]

Thank you so much for these words. I have been looking for the words for quite some time.
