Song: One Moment In Time - Whitney Houston

Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown


I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains

I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity


I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity


You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine

Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free

Time is very precious. That is why there are sayings such as "Time and tide wait for no man" and "Time is Gold". There is even a Quranic verse, Surah Al-'Asr: "1) By Al-'Asr (the time). 2) Verily! Man is in loss, 3) Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy."
In our journey through life, it isn't always smooth sailing throughout...we will definitely face some difficulties along the way. However, that's what makes us who we are today...we learned from our mistakes, improved from our successes, and we got back on our feet when we fell... And there is always that one moment that will set the path for the future, so grab the opportunity that comes your way and make the best of it...


This song was the opening song for the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.
