Can't you hear the sound of crying that comes from far away?
Don't you know there are people dying, who need the truth today?
But who will go, whoa, when so many want to stay?
Who can leave it all behind and work for him today?
Now is the time,
Soon it will be dark, and no work can be done,
Now is the time,
You light the spark and the battle will be won,
Now is the time,
Now is the time.
The harvest fields are ripe with grain, but the workers are so few,
We can't stay so uninvolved when there's so much we can do,
No time to wait, whoa yeah, we must work while it's still light,
No time to hesitate; it's time to join the fight.
Now is the time,
Soon it will be dark, and no work can be done,
Now is the time,
You light the spark and the battle will be won,
Now is the time,
Now is the time.
Take the good news to the poor, set the prisoners free,
Bring relief to those oppressed to end captivity,
We must obey, for this is his command: to go and tell the world his kingdom is at hand.
Now is the time,
Soon it will be dark, and no work can be done,
Now is the time,
You light the spark and the battle will be won,
Now is the time,
Now is the time, now is the time, now is the time,
Now is the time,
Now is the time.
