Given Time

There is a time for accepting
And a time for giving
There are times when we question
The reason for living

There is a time for learning
And a time to teach
There is a time to practice
What we preach

There is a time for understanding
And a time to be understood
There is a time for speaking out
When we feel that we should

There is a time for silence
And a time for calm
When we realise by shouting
We would only cause harm

There is a wrong time
And a right time, too
Everything in time
Will be answered for you
