Time

 

                                                    Time is of the essence,

I always hear them say

And with all good conscience,

Work while it’s still your day;

For time is what you take it

To be, your friend or foe,

It’s the kind of spirit,

That keeps you in the know;

So time will not be wasted,

On useless, thoughtless acts,

Those, when you have tasted,

The Lord’s true Spirit lacks;

For you, time’s not waiting,  

Take it not for granted,

Idle talk and wasting,

Cannot be recanted;

Time for you is precious,

Whether you’re old or young,

For your life’s victorious,

When in Christ, you’re kept strong;

Strong to be His witness,

Through His Spirit’s working,

Come now, seek forgiveness,

For time mismanaging;

To you God’s been faithful,

There’s still time given you,

Do not be unmindful,

He’s work  for you to do.                    

  Amen!
