There will come a time
A terrible time

People on this earth
Have experienced
Such difficulties
And trials

And if you have
Studied history
At all you know this

And one day
In America
It won't be
Business as usual

And it won't matter
If you have a big home
Or have some money
In the bank

The money will
Have no value

The markets won't
Be able to get food

We are so spoiled
Plenty of food
And it was always
Right there

You just assumed
It would always be
That way
Didn't you?

The time will come
When time moves slow

The way everything was
It will all change in
An instant you know

You may think of your life
The type of person you were
When a difficult time
Comes to America

There is no reason to fear
I prayed for mercy
The strength of my own body
Cannot save me

The Lord is righteous
And he will pour out his spirit
To believers in those troubling times
Matt
