"When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream... Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south" (Psalm 126:1,4). "Turn you at My reproof: behold, I will pour out My Spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you" (Proverbs 1:23). "But this I say, brethren, the time is short... for the fashion of this world passeth away" (1 Corinthians 7:29,31).
When
I first turned to Christ my Savior,
It
seemed as if it was a dream
That
God extended thus His favor
To
sinners whom He would redeem!
Now
as this world stands aloof,
Indifferent
to the price He paid,
So
many still despise reproof,
Though
judgment shall not be delayed.
The
time to turn is very short;
Eternity
is very long!
The
Lord has proven His report;
His
Word is tried and never wrong.
Lord,
on this first day of the year,
As
there is time to turn today,
Renew
my heart with godly fear
To
follow You without delay.
