Time for Truth


"It is time for Thee, Lord, to work:  for they have made void Thy law.  Therefore I love Thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold.  Therefore I esteem all Thy precepts concerning all things to be right, and I hate every false way" (Psalm 119:126-128).  "Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth, that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?" (Proverbs 22:20,21).  "There hath not failed one word of all His good promise" (1 Kings 8:56).  "If any man will do His will, He shall know of the doctrine" (John 7:17).

The world thinks they have made void
The truth of God's unerring Word.
The reasoning they have employed
Is blind, dishonest, and absurd.

It's time to set the record straight!
It's time to show the evidence!
It's time to clearly demonstrate
The certainty of our defense!

Has not the Word of God prevailed
In every promise that we hold?
There has not even one word failed
Of all His prophets have foretold!

Did not our Savior rise again
Exactly as He said He would?
So why should we be halting then
To make this clearly understood?

It's time for truth to now be shared
With confidence and prayerful skill.
So let us study!  Be prepared
To speak according to God's will!

O Lord, You have equipped us well
To tell the truth souls need to hear.
The time has come for us to tell
The Gospel truth and make it clear.
