...while there is still time

The world as it is has changed-
People say the end has come:
Don't you see the signs?
Mothers eating their babies
Fathers raping their daughters.
Young men fighting old men.
Gray hair lacking wisdom.
Many faint from rumours of war.

The world as it is has changed-
No time to sit on the fence.

If you are for God, then go all the way with Him
Holiness is key, victory is certain.
If you are for the devil, then go all the way with him-
You may have your brief moment of glow
Then he will drink your blood and eat your flesh.

The world as it is- has always been as it is:
Filled with goodness, pain and vices
We are given the power to choose...
No more room for hot-cold affair:
Are you for light or for darkness?
Choose now while there is still time.
May God's mercy not elude us.
