The Time

[Verse 1]

There’s a time for all things under the sun

All things are beautiful when their time has come

A time for silence and for Divine Roar

When lives must “Turn Upon the Core”

A time to break down, a time to build and repair

A time for confrontation, a time to guide with care

A time to scatter far apart

A time to join and mend the hearts



[Chorus 1]

Assemble together and lift your eyes

(And you will see that)

The future is right now

The day has arrived



[Verse 2]

A time for calm, a time for peace

A time when thunder will not cease

When saints are gathered from near and far

For invasion and for war

A time when knowledge is locked away

But let the seals be broken in this our day

So what’s been spoken can be fulfilled

As we transact with the final things



[Chorus 2]

The beauty, the glory, the Body of Christ

Assembled together with lifted eyes



[Bridge]

A time when promises made to man

Find full expression by our hand

A time when “Time” itself will pass

That day is now within our grasp

And as we faithfully complete each task

There’ll come a day which will be the last

And Time’s last song together we’ll sing

Now that will be a beautiful thing



[Chorus 3]

The beauty, the glory, the Body of Christ

Assembled together

This is the time

(Repeat)



[Ending Refrain]

Now that is a beautiful thing

Now that we’re together in Him

Here at the fulfillment of things

That’s a beautiful thing

(Repeat)
