I
WE'RE LIVING IN A MODERN DAY AND PERILOUS TIMES NO DOUBT.
FOR SEEMS WE GO AND GO TO CHURCH AND SELDOM HEAR A SHOUT.
BUT WHERE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS THERE IS LIBERTY.
AND IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN FRIEND THE SAINTS ARE ALL SET FREE.
SOME PREACHERS SAY JUST GET A FAITH THE ONE THAT SUITS YOU BEST.
AND IF YOU'LL BE LOYAL TO IT THE LORD WILL DO THE REST.
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS FRIEND YOU OUGHT TO KNOW.
WHAT YOU AND I BELIEVE AND THINK DON'T REALLY MAKE IT SO.
II
SOME SAY UNLESS YOU'RE ON THEIR BOOKS YOUR CHANCE IS VERY SLIM.
AND IF YOU DON'T DO WHAT THEY SAY YOU'RE NOT A PART OF THEM.
BUT JESUS HAS A BOOK MY FRIEND NAMES IN IT DIVINE.
AND I'M SO GLAD THAT I KNOW RIGHT NOW THAT ONE OF THEM IS MINE.
SO LIFT UP YOUR HEADS SAINTS AND WALK IN THE EVENING LIGHT.
A SHINNING THROUGH THE CHURCH OF GOD LIGHTING UP THE WAY THAT'S RIGHT
NOW DON'T GIVE UP BUT KEEP A WALKING ON THE RACE IS ALMOST RUN.
IT WON'T BE LONG TILL WE SEE OUR BROTHER JESUS CHRIST GOD'S SON.
CHORUS
SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO BE THE WHEEL AND HAVE THEIR NAME UP AT THE TOP.
UNTIL THEY'RE IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT THEY WON'T EVER STOP.
ITS NOT WHO YOU ARE OR WHERE YOU'VE BEEN LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY.
BUT ITS WHERE YOU'RE GOING AND WHOM YOU SERVE THAT WILL COUNT ON
THE JUDGMENT DAY.
