Accountable For Each Moment - Ephesians 5: 16

The scriptures call us to account
to redeem our precious time
making sure it's not wasted
for to do so is a crime

This exhortation is for a reason
for these evil days, we live in
would seek to make us sleepy
spiritually blind gripped by sin

So make sure you value time
making every moment count
getting all you can from it
filling your needed fount

God has declared a judgement
on all mankind to speak
to tell of all they've done
for some, the outcome will be bleak

So remember redeem the time
in these evil days
for God's word declares it
nothing is hidden God says
