Time is passing, tick tock, tick tock,
The hands keep moving on the clock
Minutes are speeding one by one
From early dawn till setting sun.
How fast our lives do melt away
While none have found a way to stay
Help us, oh Lord, to seek a trail
Where excess time may be for sale.
Let’s close our eyes and hope and pray
That tomorrow could be the day
We’ll ring a bell and yell ” surprise ”
And never more exchange goodbyes !
There are times my pain evinces fears
And burdens life with unwanted tears
Moments when one is upended by
A lack of concern or passersby
Please help me Lord, so I may erase
The spell of doom that now clouds my face !
Can it be I hear an alarm
The world we knew has lost its charm
It’s upside down and turned around
Looks like we all are losing ground
While terra firma seems so grand
Society destroys the land
We need take care before we’re lost
Our carelessness too great a cost !
See the calendar pages fly
The days are fleet and passing by
From March to June, so seeming blest
Continueing through all the rest
There is no halting summer, fall
Or any time each year at all !
It’s time for all to stop and think
Our world’s been trembling on the brink
The last thing that we need right now
Is someone else’s sacred cow
Another reason to resist
Or confrontation to exist.
We’re not so very far removed
From where our lives were unimproved
The horse and buggy were our ride
While sanitation was outside
And I’m not sure I can be pressed
To choose which era I like best !
A force now rises in the east
To calm the anger of the beast
The winds of change will power divest
And merit fortune in its quest
The time has come, the hour is near
To charm the crowd and vanquish fear !
