Now Is the Time
Our nation is on a precipice
A deadly virus has gone amiss
Now is the time for us to get right with God
So that this unsettling spirit can be dismissed
Chaos, confusion and uncertainty
Are choking the nation
Now is the time for us to come together
In righteous indignation
God wants us to mitigate in order
To alleviate the disquiet at hand
And he will call on anyone
To further His divine plans
No you don't have to be a saint
To do whatever God does ask
Truth be told God will use the worst sinner
To accomplish His tasks
Now is the time to simply accept
That which God inspires
As we can't live by man's standard
But by only what God desires
Now is the time to stand in the gap
And act on our faith
To show the world what disciples do
Now isn't the time to wait
For now is the time to get rid of pharaohs
Those who oppress and control
For as true disciples and witnesses of Christ
We must be brave and hold
Now is the time to call out to Jesus
Who is the Great I Am
That name above all other names
The Redeemer of man
And unlike Moses we don't have to wander
To wonder nor ask to who
As we now know Jesus is our Savior
And what He can do
Now is the time to say I am here
God use me as you please
For I am your willing servant
And unto to You I will appease
