Went walkin', people were a gawkin' Saw him like many times before He was dirty, a little topsy turvey No one cared about the burden he bore I was thinkin': "Man, this dude's been drinkin'" Could he even hear what I had to say My nerves a jumpin', my heart started pumpin' As he looked up I started to pray
O dear Lord please give me wisdom and help me to be led He walked up to me, looked right at me and this is what he said
(Say, can you tell me the time) Time to believin' (Hey, can you tell me the time) It's time for you to see (Say, won't you tell me the time) Time to be receivin' Hey there, looky here, I'll make it clear If you listen, I'll tell you the time
Well, I told 'em the lies the devil sold him Would only bring more pain to his heart There was Someone I knew he could rely on To help give his life a brand new start And all the burdens that he had always carried Could be buried by Calvary's love The price was paid there, but no, He didn't stay there He conquered death so we could join Him above
O dear Lord won't You please forgive me, I led him as he prayed And from now on he will be ready for that rapture day
(Say, can you tell me the time) And now he is believin' (Hey, can you tell me the time) His blinded eyes can see (Say, won't you tell me the time) The time he did receive Him
No more Mr. Poor, brand new score When he prayed, he opened the door
And now He turns to you And in Him there are changes He knows just what to do He knows a lot of funny strangers And all the love He's found Puts an end to eternal danger He's tellin' you the time is now Check out this guitar sound
O dear Lord please give me wisdom and help me to be led He walked up to me, looked right at me and this is what he said
(Say, can you tell me the time) Time to believin' (Hey, can you tell me the time) It's time for you to see (Say, won't you tell me the time) Time to be receivin' Don't ya pout, never doubt, check it out Tell 'em what it's all about, yeah (Say, can you tell me the time) Time to be leavin' (Hey, can you tell me the time) It's time for you to see (Say, won't you tell me the time) Time to be receivin' Hey there, looky here, I made it clear They'll listen so tell 'em the time (x2)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
