Only One Life
The above song “Only One Life” (as composed by Lanny Wolfe in 1973) was inspired by the poem that Charles Thomas Studd (1860-1931) wrote. C. T. Studd is a member of the so-called Cambridge Seven who gave their lives to Christ and His missions. May its timeless message and perspective resonates in our hearts daily. Read and ponder the poem:
“Only One Life” by C. T. Studd
Two little lines I heard one day,
Traveling along life’s busy way;
Bringing conviction to my heart,
And from my mind would not depart;
Only one life, twill soon be past,
Only what’s done for Christ will last.
