ONLY TIME TO PRAY

 

Hell came calling this morning

After heroes had gone for the day

My heart skipped a beat when fear took a seat

And I knew that they meant to stay 

 

I dreaded any more callers

My heart had turned cold and numb

I was no stranger to this danger

Surely more would come

 

CHORUS:

There was no time to fall

No time to run away

No time to walk tall, no time at all

There was only time to pray

 

With the weight of the world on my shoulders

Somehow I knew what to do

Though all the hosts of hell, come to my house to dwell

They’ll leave when they find me with You

 

2^nd CHORUS:

They’ll leave when they find me with You, oh Lord

They’ll leave when they find me with You

I’m asking you, please, from my heart, from my knees

Let them find me with you

 

Hell came calling this morning

After heroes had gone for the day

There was no time to cry, no time to ask why

There was only time to pray

 

CHORUS
