English Lyrics, South Africa, Zulu Gospel Lyrics Hasan Green, soweto gospel choir, Tomorrow Lyrics 1 Comment
(Non-English parts sung in Zulu)
Kusasa akufikile (If tomorrow never comes)
Kusasa kusasa kufikile (It tomorrow fails to arrive)
When today is still today,
And you still have time to pray
Don’t let this moment, pass you by
They say trouble don’t last always
But there will be troubled days
There is a brighter day ahead
Chorus:
If tomorrow never came,
Would you be satisfied with how you lived today
You’ve got to live like it’s your last time
Got to live with a made up mind
If tomorrow, what if tomorrow never came (usothini?) (What will you say?)
Kusasa akufikile (If tomorrow never comes)
kusasa kusasa kufikile (It tomorrow fails to arrive)
Tomorrow, Helelema tomorrow.
My life began the day I gave my pain away
Can’t hold on to yesterday
The past is the past
The future is the future
And all we have is today
(Chorus)
Tomorrow may start without you
So do all that you can do today
What will they have to say
When you have passed away
Were you just here, or did you live?
(Chorus)
