There is a time for everything
The right time to dance and the right time to sing
Then the right to mourn and even to cry
Within eternity doing right, I really do try
John the Baptist humble and clear
Repent, the baptized Christ is here
Jesus begins to say the word
Repent the time is now was heard
He began to call fishers of men
His ministry on earth to begin
Jesus began to preach Good News
The Kingdom of God is here don't refuse
The Father in heaven has made a way
For you to come to Him today
Joshua preached as for me and mine
We will serve the Lord, choose Thine
Blessed is the poor in spirit too
Sermon on the Mount, words true
Peter at the time of Pentecost
Repent, be saved, do not be lost
Paul in Acts let me introduce
My God to you only One, not deuce
Repent, only Christ do you say with your life?
Are others drawn to your peace or strife?
Now! Right Now! The time has come
For God's work to persistently be done
The Kingdom of God is at hand
We hear the words, do we understand?
So how do I earn my own way?
There is nothing but to look today
Jesus took on all of our sin
This is where our journey must begin
Sin is always a stumbling block
Except for when you look at the clock
Hours Minutes Seconds of now
You take a step.. to obey is how
There is no sin that can't be overcome
By Christ blood it has already been done
Praising God for my own Salvation
Yet, I still must do an evaluation
We must will ourselves to truth
Faith means we don't seek proof
We read the words, accepting you
The change begins and we know it's true
We can praise because we know that we know
Repent we need to say wherever we go
Being aware of the time and how to spend
To know every moment is Now not the end
