The Battle's Just Begun
I saw sweet Susie by her back yard gate
I asked her plainly if she could wait
She said, "I hope He doesn’t come like this
I want to hang around and raise some kids"
Asked ol’ Joe if he knew who he was
He gazed into his hands and started to cuss
Said, "Yes I know but brother tell me true
Who is this God that means so much to you?"
I said time is running swiftly out
There ain’t no time to run
The battle’s just begun
I saw you running for your cellar door
As if you waited for a nuclear war
I’d like for you to tell me what it’s for
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me now
Tell me
Got your message on a grocery bag
Said you did not think you could live like that
How can you play life like a deck of cards?
Please seek forgiveness before you cannot
Because time is running swiftly out
There ain’t no time to run
The battle’s just begun
The battle’s just begun . . .
The battle’s just begun . . .
The battle’s just begun . . .
You better find yourself in the face of
The Son
You better find your place in the plan of
The Son
