Its Time

Brian Bevels 1977 (Centre al)



Its time to stop playing around
And surrender to Gods call.
We are a chosen generation
And he has a plan for us all.

Its time to put Satan in his place
In the darkest pits of hell.
Its time we start living for our savior
And let Satan know Jesus is still alive and well.

Its time to start acting like Christians
And not just warming the pews.
Its time to be about our fathers business
And start spreading the news.

Its time to start reaching people
And tell of the miracles He can do.
Its time to just quit sitting around
Because he died for me and you.

Its time to get on our knees and pray
And seek God for his direction.
Its time to get Satan out of our lives
And look forward to the Lord's perfection.
