A Change Is Gonna Come
When the time is right and you have surrendered your soul
A change is gonna come and God will take hold
He will pick you up and turn your life around
He will wash away your sins and let the joy come down
Don’t put off for tomorrow what you can do today
You can’t clean yourself up there is just no way.
Just give yourself over to God and let him use you
He will clean you up and make your spirit new.
He will be a comforter, a keeper, a guide and a friend
He will not forsake you not even until the end
Your best friend may leave you and never come around
Friends you have spent your life with may no longer be found
But God will be there through thick and thru thin
You can call on him at midnight for He’s always in
Just fall on your knees when you need some direction
And He’ll always hear you there’s never a bad connection
For what ever is your problem, Jesus is the answer
Whether it is financial, emotional, or some kind of cancer
When all others say no, God can still say yes
Because He knows your heart, and He loves you the best
You may have to go through trials, but just continue to pray
Cause from adversity comes strength to help you find your way
God won’t bring you to it if He can’t lead you through it
Put all your faith in God and in Him fully commit
Remember, a change is gonna come when you will be made whole
A change is gonna come when you will become as pure as gold
A change is gonna come that will turn your life around
A change is gonna come that will leave you heaven bound!
