"O Shepherds, Redeem the Time"



    Redeem the time, Shepherds of my flock.
    Redeem the time, for there will be no refund or exchange
    on the things you choose to buy.
    Will you redeem the souls of men?
    Will you redeem the hurting souls?
    Will you buy that which will not perish in the flame,
    or will you buy the pretty things?
    Shepherd of my flock, Redeem the time,
    because the rivers shall overflow.
    The rains are coming and my flock must be prepared.
    They must know what to do in the rain.
    They must be able to climb to higher ground.
    Can they hear My voice?
    Do they know when I speak?
    Or will they be unsure?
    Will they know the way when the path is not clear?
    Will they be filled with my peace or
    will the flock be filled with fear?
    Shepherds of my flock,
    Redeem the time, redeem the time.
    Give my sheep the new wine.
    Oh do you understand that
    you are running out of time?
    As the time empties out and the sun sets each day,
    The finishing of time is even closer than you think.
    Be ready sheep, be ready, Shepherds of My flock
    Oh let the fear of God grow
    as you hear the ticking of His clock.
    There is a cry in the heart of the sheep
    for pure pastures to dwell in.
    There is a longing for a place to lie down.
    Soon there will be a place, soon.
    Cleanse your hearts My shepherds.
    Cleanse your hearts, My little flock.
    Remember the sound, as the time runs out.
    Hear the ticking away of the time clock, O My shepherds.
    O My little flock, Redeem the time.
