A month is nearly over -- the year is now half gone.

Time is moving ever forward, and the clock is ticking on....

What we call the "present" all too quickly is the past...

and the moments are just fleeting -- moments that you wish could last.

For time moves ever forward at a hectic, break-neck pace...

with life's tribulations that make you fall upon your face...

But for us, these times have meaning - for the new world does draw near..

And the greatest Tribulation we can now face without fear.

For it ushers in a time when all mankind will live in peace

On an earth restored to Paradise where life will never cease.

Yes, the "times, they are a-changing" and for this we do rejoice

Before Our God, Jehovah, with a thankful, grateful voice.

Aren't you glad you chose to serve Him? This was based on God's own Word...

And we listened and obeyed what we have seen and what we've heard.

This world may be a shambles, but our lives can peaceful be...

If we keep our eyes upon the prize while serving our God actively.

We do need to encourage one another every day...

Consoling those depressed souls that we meet along the way...

And lift the broken-hearted - we must help their hearts to mend..

We must help them on the road to life - our meetings to attend.

We need to use time wisely... This has to be our goal...

as we preach the kingdom message to every living soul.

For time moves ever forward -- and it rushes with much haste..

It is a precious resource -- one we can't afford to waste.
