"IT'S ABOUT TIME"

Verse 1
Things are no longer the same now;
Maybe you thought you were just playing a game,
But we're struggling to stay alive now,
And who's to blame?
The Devil ain't pleased with us,
He won't be satisfied 'til we're defamed,
'Til we're no longer serving Jesus,
'Til we no longer believe His name.

Chorus 1
It's about time that you take a good look at your life:
Look where you're goin', at what you're sowin',
Tell me if it's for what's right.
The place that ya end up is gonna depend only on you.
I'll bet you'll regret when you're stuck in your debt
Of indecisions when they are due.

Verse 2
Miserable circumstances
Can't be the reason for the choice you make.
Not everybody just plays and dances
Their lives away.
There are so many things we go through--
Sometimes it's easy, at times it's not.
The difference is you're attitude,
And what you make with what you have got.

Chorus 2
It's about time that you take a good look at your life:
Look where you're goin', at what you're sowin',
Tell me if it's for what's right.
The place that ya end up is gonna depend only on you.
I'll bet you'll regret when you're stuck in your debt
Of indecisions when they are due.

Verse 3
The desire to serve the Lord has
Gotta be the reason that you stay,
For nothing else is gonna hold you,
And you'll be swayed.
Our lives aren't full of riches-
God's got something better Up There
For those who have convictions
And who choose to give their all down here.

Chorus 3 [a cappella]
It's about time that you take a good look at your life:
Look where you're goin', at what you're sowin',
Tell me if it's for what's right.
The place that ya end up is gonna depend only on you.
I'll bet you'll regret when you're stuck in your debt
Of indecisions when they are due.

Chorus 4
It's about time that you take a good look at your life:
Look where you're goin', at what you're sowin',
Tell me if it's for what's right.
The place that ya end up is gonna depend only on you.
I'll bet you'll regret when you're stuck in your debt
Of indecisions when they are due.
