No Time!
IÂ knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do,
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease….
All day long I had no time
To spread a word of Cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They’d laugh at me I’d fear,
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time to die.
I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in His hands God held a book;
It was the Book of Life.
God looked into His Book and said:
“Your name I cannot find,
I once was going to write it down…
But I never found the time”!
Find time for the Lord!
2 Peter 3:8
