341. THE TIME IS NOW UPON US
U.tGARONSE LOS TIENiPDS

The time is now upon us, the days are surely numbered,
The prophecies the Lord spoke, are duly coming true;
Upon leaving the temple to the garden of olives,
With living words of wisdom, He left us many signs.
CHORUS
//Upon leaving the temple to the garden of olives,
With living words of wisdom, He left us many signs//
2
See time's swift upon us, it's passing by so quickly
And all the signs that tell us our Lord is coming back;
He speaks to us through conflicts, He speaks to us through the
winds,
The time is coming closer when Jesus will return.
3
All things have been fulfilled now, there's nothing else to wait for,
If anyone is sleeping it's time to be awake;
In Him we'll find the cure and faithful consolation,
The King of heaven will come to take his Church with Him.
4
Why wouldn't Jesus carry your sins and your transgressions?
For He has come to save us with His death on the cross;
He is your great defender, He is your intercessor,
He wishes to redeem you as proof of His great love.

Take up my heart, oh, Lord, and let your presence fill my heart,
Give me more joy, more peace, contentment, and more gladness;
I long to feel in my soul delight in your sweet grace.
