Timothy Brindle
The Preciousness of Time
[Verse 1]
I've got a whole lot to say about time
So now I'm a shout mine because it's about time
God created time so He's able to end it
Plus He entered time and came and descended
But He's not ever bound by time
He's eternally perfect so He's never out His prime
God always existed even with no time
Then He spoke things into existence in no time
In His divine mind He decreed a time line
To display His glory to creatures and said, Time's mine
So time or fate is not the sovereign
In fact time is ruled by God the Father
Some say time will tell but actually it can't
Because He's already said what will happen in advance
He's the Lord of time-this rhymes is worshiping
He ain't serving time- time is serving Him
See time is a space given by God in His kindness and grace
As He's shining His face
Yet it's kind of funny-some say time is money
But time's more precious than money, wine, or honey
Because we're spending time- there's no refunds
We'll never see it again- there's no reruns
If you lost your hummer it's possible to cop another
But time is something we cannot recover
Yet I'm baffled
How some think they can preserve time inside of a time capsule
But since the fall of man
The sands of time are turning us all back into salty sand
But our souls have an eternal destination
So use your time to make sure the best is taken
It's either in preparation to better praise Him
Or further steps toward eternal separation
[Chorus - Turntablism]
"We’re on borrowed time all the time
And all the time we got is all the time we got
But one day all the time will stop"
"I think about all the time-time-time that I wasted"
"And I realized that my time had an end"
"We’re on borrowed time all the time
And all the time we got is all the time we got
But one day all the time will stop"
"I think about all the time-time-time that I wasted"
"There isn’t much time left"
[Verse 2]
On Wall Street a rich dude snorts lines
His morning devotion is the New York Times
And Time magazine at times it seems
Time flies as if time had some wings
But this is irony right
While most spend the time of their life trying to have the time of their life
Thinking lies are really true
If you're busy killing time the truth is time is killing you
But you're too cool- you love to take your time
You fool- God can come and take your time
Then He'll search your mind and surely find your works are slime
Once sin's an eternal prime it takes eternity to serve the time
Reject Him and regret how your spurned this rhyme
You offended the Divine
In hell, like Michael Jackson, You'll remember the time
Once your time is up you blasphemer
You can't travel back with a flux capacitor
It�s such a massacre when Christ's popping the sky
You'll want to go back in time like Marty McFly
But you sharply despised Christ kindness my friend
And He gave you a lifetime to repent
So next time you're asking what time is it
Know Christ can come to give times final tick
Your eternity hangs on what you do with time
So use it to trust the Savior of human kind
Whose more than somebody
And at the right time Jesus Christ died for the ungodly
So when the fullness of time came the Ruler of time came
To pull us from prides chain
The time is fulfilled- His kingdom is at hand
So repent and believe and come cling onto the Lamb
[Chorus - Turntablism]
"We’re on borrowed time all the time
And all the time we got is all the time we got
But one day all the time will stop"
"I think about all the time-time that I wasted
And I realized that my time had an end"
"We’re on borrowed time all the time
And all the time we got is all the time we got
But one day all the time will stop"
"I think about all the time-time that I wasted
There isn’t much time left"
[Verse 3]
If you live to be 90 there's an absurdity
Even that's a blink compared to eternity
Christians most of the time we don't make the most of our time
So let's refocus on Jehovah's design
Yet I'm convicted
By how much of my time's been wicked even since I've been Christian
But time is ticking and life is a vapor
So delight and then savor Christ whose our Savior
Please read Ephesians 5: 16 and you'll find we need to be redeeming the time
Because we'll give an account of what we did or didn't do with our time
Don't just sit in the house
Yeah Christ blood assures securely
But our use of time affects our rewards and glory
To the vine we're attached
So let's bear fruit and work overtime like making time and a half
Excuse me teens-it's useless to be glued as fiends
To the TV and computer screen
No time for folly and gossip and small is the profit
If spending all day at the malls we are shopping
No time to waste playing playstation or taking vacations
Today is the day of salvation
For unsaved pagans don't waste a moment
Please take time to share the great atonement
Donï't spend it sinning-you'll dead that syndrome
Instead invest time of how to spread the kingdom
Instead of serving time
Let's spend time serving the needs of others- and His worth will shine
And since we can't rewind a minute
Be careful to kill sin because there's no time for sinning
So avoid sins poison and disaster
And in the end we'll enter in the joy of our master
