If I closed my eyes, then opened them and life had passed by
I hope my joys exceeded the sorrows
My laughs superseded the tears
My successes outshined the failures
I hope I’d lived a life so full, there’d be no cause for regrets

I loved God with all my heart
Followed in His prescribed path
I pursued my dreams
Got up when I fell
And tried and tried again

I won some and I lost some
Settled for nothing but the best
I was good to my fellowmen
I gave fully of myself
I was loved and I loved

If I closed my eyes, then opened them and life had passed by
I hope I’d lived a life so full, there’d be no cause for regrets
