Is It Already Time?


Verse 1:
I've travelled down this life in the fast lane.
Every moment whizzing by
Just another warning sign...
To slow down and appreciate each day!
When I'm older, there'll be plenty of time,
But I'm a careless wind, blowing wild and free...
Life won’t ever have a hold on me.
And to waste this Youth would be a wretched crime!

Chorus 1:
But is it already time?
I've got so much left to say.
And so much of what I've started...
Will just wilt and fade away.
Can you slow down the hours...
And maybe hold the line?
And stop planning my tomorrow's...
But is it already time?

Verse 2:
This world may try, but it can't do me wrong.
I've danced with my demons,
Lost all my inhibitions.
I finally know where I belong.
I hold Fate in the palm of my hand.
Now the Dregs of Eternity,
They got nothing on me.
Yet Time, it runs through these fingers like sand.

Chorus 2:
And is it already time?
I've got so much left to say.
And I've only just got started...
Will I wilt and fade away?
Can you slow down the hours...
So I can beg for what is mine?
I have no need for tomorrows...
But is it already time?

Bridge:
When you're living fast, and flying high.
You can't fathom the reasons why
Life gets in your way,
But I promise it'll be okay!
At 30, forever's on your side.
You still strut through life,
With your foolish pride.
And before you know it,
It's all just slipped away...
It's all just slipping away!

Repeat Chorus
Is it already time?
Is it already time?
Is it already time?
Is it already time?

Grace

When my world has crashed and burned,
Every chance for redemption spurned,
When the world has all but spat in my face.
And my summer has turned to frost,
The lone battle fought and all been lost...
Lord, grant me your Grace!

When faith is a luxury I can't afford,
And life burdens me with its load,
When I'm enveloped in Death's stony embrace.
As the storm approaches, livid with thunder,
The oceans of life threaten to drag me under,
Father, in you I will find Grace!

When the tracks of my tears have faded in the dust,
The promises of love all crumbled into rust,
And all I want is to vanish without a trace, 
When the lines 'tween friend and foe blur,
And I cannot stand to go any further... 
I'll stand steadfast in your Grace!

When sleep eludes my restless soul,
And the fight has shattered my every bone,
When my demons have almost won the chase,
And the world calls me out for yesterday's crimes,
What I knew to be truth, now only filth and grime...
I pray for no more than Your Grace!

When my earthly journey has run its course,
And I stand in your presence forevermore,
I'll know when I gaze upon those pearly gates,
It was your love that steered me through adversity,
Your hand that led me through the uncertainty. 
I'm saved by the promise of your Amazing Grace!
