Yearning for yesterday for the things
You left behind
For the pleasures and the praises of men
The price of following Jesus has gotten much too steep
And you're tempted to turn back to sin
It's time to get right
Putting off the works of night
Putting on the robes of light
It's time to get right
Serve the lord with all your might
Taking up the sword to fight
It's time
Just like the children of Israel
You fuss, fight and scream
You rebel when you don't get your way
It's looking better now that you think back
What about the price you will pay?
Knowledge is increasing more and more each day
And still we don't understand
All that I just spent
Running to and fro, evading the master's plan
Hearts refuse to listen, ears refuse to hear
That the awesome day of the lord is soon
It's time to get right
It's time to get right
It's time to get right
Putting off the works of night
Putting on the robes of light
It's time to get right
Serve the lord with all your might
Taking up the sword to fight
It's time to get right
Putting off the works of night
Putting on the robes of light
It's time to get right
Serve the lord with all your might
Taking up the sword to fight
It's time to get right
