Blink by Revive is one of my favorite Christian songs. The song was released in 2010, but it still makes me want to cry whenever I hear it.
It’s crazy how music can break your heart and make you want to live a better life. That’s what this song does. It reminds me that life goes by so fast and I need to slow down and savor it.
As a mom of four, looking back at my kid’s baby photos kills me. I wished those days away, and I will never get them back.
I would give anything to go back in time and tell that young mom to hold that baby longer. To give those toddlers more grace. To make it her mission for them to know that she loves them.
Tell them; God loves them no matter how many times they crawl out of their little beds.
Blink Lyrics By Revive
Teach me to number my days
And count every moment
Before it slips away
Take in all the colors
Before they fade to grey
I don’t want to miss
Even just a second
More of this
It happens in a blink; it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
When it’s all said and done
No one remembers
How far we have run
The only thing that matters
Is how we have loved
I don’t want to miss
Even just a second
More of this
It happens in a blink; it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
Slow down
Slow down
Before today becomes
Our yesterday
Slow down
Slow down
Before you turn around
And it’s too late
It happens in a blink; it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink; it happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there’s no stopping time
What is it I’ve done with my life?
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
It happens in a blink
