[D]
Time
I rely on—
Angelica

We tell your story

Near you

The Lord, in his kindness

He gives me more—

Time
[Gm]
I raise funds in D.C. for the Washington Monument
[G] [Cm]

[Ab] [G7]
You could have done so much more if you only had—
[Eb]
Time
[G]
And when my time is up, have I done enough?

Will they tell our story?
Will they tell your story?
[Ab]
Oh. Can I show you what I’m proudest of?

And when my time is up

Have I done enough?

Oh, I can’t wait to see you again
[G7]
It’s only a matter of—
