The Hour's at Hand

A hundred years or so ago
The 'War to end all wars' was fought -
Or so, at least, the people thought.

Nevertheless millions of people -
Women, babes, children and men
Have died between today and then.

Wars and rumors of more wars
Have been increasing day by day;
They simply will not go away.

The future looks quite bleak and scary;
Many things are going wrong;
What then, on earth, is going on?

We're daily moving ever closer
To the beginning of the end -
The time has now come to repent.

Today's indeed the best of days
To confess sins and turn away
From all our wicked deeds and ways.

Don't wait until it is too late;
The hour's at hand; the time has come
To turn to God's own Son.
