There's a time to laugh and a time to cry,
A time to live and a time to die,
A time to be all the things our Father said we would be.

A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to break down and a time to build,
A time to bring forth the Word to set creation free.

So as you weep, know soon you will laugh,
And as you mourn, know soon you will dance,
It's the time to get, to lose, to keep and to cast away.

A time to keep silent, a time to speak,
A time to love and a time to hate,
And balanced we'll be, as we walk on into God's new Day.
