TIME IS IMPORTANT TO YOUNG AND TO OLD,
FOR TIME PASSES ALL WITH HASTE.
WE MUST WATCH OUR LIVES WITH A VERY SHARP EYE,
FOR WE CANNOT AFFORD TIME TO WASTE.
FOR SOME WHO ARE SICK, IN JAIL OR CONFINED,
TIME DOES SO SLOWLY PASS BY.
BUT, FOR US WHO ARE LIVING OUR LIVES TO THE BRIM.
TIME SEEMS SO SWIFTLY TO FLY.
YOU CANNOT SAVE TIME IN A CARTON,
OR STORE IT TO DO WHAT YOU THINK.
YOU MUST USE IT NOW VERY WISELY,
OR WASTE IT AWAY IN A WINK.
SO USE THE TIME YOU HAVE WISELY,
TO TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS OF GOD’S PLAN.
HOW CHRIST HAS COME WITH THE MESSAGE,
OF HOPE AND SALVATION FOR MAN.
IF YOU WILL BUT TRUST IN THIS MESSAGE,
AND SPEAK WITH HIS LOVE IN YOUR MIND,
YOU’LL SPEND TIME LATER WITH JESUS,
WHERE SHOWERS OF BLESSING YOU’LL FIND
