At The Right Time

At the time of God's own choosing, He came,
When we the fight were losing, He came.
Long before we knew Him
When we were lost in sin,
At the right time, at the best time, He came.
When the night was cold and dreary, He came
To His children worn and weary, He came.
To bring us out of darkness
To make us His again,
At the right time, at the best time, He came
To the great and to the lowly, He came,
To the wicked, to the holy, He came.
That we might know the Father
That Heaven we might gain,
At the right time, at the best time, He came.
At the right time, at the best time, He came.
