There comes a time, we must heed a certain call
We must come, come together and preach
We must share the word of God to every boy and girl
We must show the greater love of God
See we can't go on, pretending day by day, that there is no life after this life
We can see the people go, they're dying every day
Did they know our savior Jesus Christ?
 
We are the church, we are his people
We are the ones who know the word of God, so let's start preaching
There's a choice we've got to make to shine the light of God
It's true we make a better world through Jesus Christ
 
God sent us His son so we know that Jesus cares
And He came to save the sinner from hell
As God has shown us by dying on the cross
So we all must give our lives to Him
 
We are the church, we are His people
We are the ones who know the word of God, so let's start preaching
There's a choice we've got to make to shine the light of God
It's true we make a better world through Jesus Christ
 
Men go down to hell where there's no hope at all
In the lake of fire, there's darkness everywhere
Oh! Oh! Oh! Let us realize that a man cannot be saved
Except through the blood of Jesus Christ
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
