SUCH A TIME
This is a time we seek God's intervention
A time of lamentation
A time of disturbed system of education
And a time of serious prevention
This is a time of life preservation
A time of unexpected humiliation
A time of disturbed socialization
And a time of desperation
This is a time of service centralization
A time of serious corruption
A time of hunger and starvation
And a time of resource exploitation
This is a time of living in confusion
A time of unknown conclusion
A time of permanent vacation
And a time we refer it back to Creation
This is a time we understand God's jurisdiction
A time we accept His free salvation
A time we turn back to Him without notification
And a time of self realization
