Not Enough Time
The bible says in Revelation,
That the world will end in a bang.
It says that we must be ready,
For the day will come unannounced.
I look at the things I’ve done in my life,
With a smile turned to a frown.
What if the day comes now?
I’m not ready, not yet.
There are some things I need to change,
I’m afraid that there is…
…NOT ENOUGH TIME
What if I don’t get a chance?
A chance to change the things I want.
The day will come and I won’t be ready,
I’m scared of what could happen,
If the end would happen now.
Will God look at my life and smile,
Or will He look with sadness?
My goal is to live a holy life,
So I guess I need to change.
I’m afraid that there is…
…NOT ENOUGH TIME
Today I am going to start over,
To do the things that are right.
I’m going to live a holy life,
Or try to do the best I can.
I’m sorry for the things I’ve done,
That makes me frown on my past.
I want to be confident and smile.
When the end comes with a big bang,
I want to be ready and not worry about…
…NOT ENOUGH TIME
