TIME FOR CHANGE
TIME FOR CHANGE
CHANGE is
The beginning of
SOMETHING NEW
There are many times
WHEN God breaks through
And presents something NEW
That is
What God and Jesus
Are doing here
It is TIME for
Something new
“Jesus said, 'This is
The time of fulfillment
The KINGDOM of God
Is at hand
Repent and believe
In the Gospel'” Mark 1:15
And then-AS NOW
Maybe it is time
For something NEW
In our lives again
Maybe it is time
To BRING GOD
To the forefront
Of our lives
Once again
And to
The forefront
Of our world
Lord knows
What we have been doing now
Is NOT WORKING
TIME for something new
Time for some change
Jesus is announcing:
“GOD is starting something NEW
DON'T MISS IT”
“He put a new song
In my mouth
A hymn of praise
To our God
MANY will see
And fear the Lord
And put their trust
In him” Psalm 40:3
“Sing to the Lord
A new song
For he has done
Marvelous things
His right hand
And his holy arm
have worked salvation
For him” Psalm 98:1
“Go stand in the
temple courts”-he said-
And tell the people
ALL about the NEW LIFE” Acts 5:20
Jesus is telling his disciples
COME with me
And we will
CHANGE THE WORLD
We will GIVE HOPE to everyone
No longer fisher men
But “FISHERS OF MEN”
They could have ignored Jesus
But I think
Even to their own
Utter amazement
They bought into JESUS
THEY BOUGHT INTO HOPE
I believe it is time
For CHANGE in our world
ONCE AGAIN
Why can't we BUY into God
BUY INTO Jesus-all over again
And bring LOVE & HOPE & CHANGE
To the world-all over again
“If you really CHANGE
Your ways and your actions
And deal with each other JUSTLY
If you do not oppress
The foreigner
The fatherless and the widow
And do not shed innocent blood
In this place
And if you do NOT FOLLOW
Other gods-to your own harm
….....” Jeremiah 7:5-6
Dear friends
It is TIME FOR CHANGE
In this world-ALL OVER AGAIN-
May we CHANGE THE WORLD
One more time-TO LOVE
THIS TIME-FOR GOOD
