I knelt to pray but not for long, 
I had too much to do. 
I had to hurry and get to work 
For bills would soon be due. 
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, 
And jumped up off my knees. 
My Christian duty was now done 
My soul could rest at ease. 
All day long I had no time 
To spread a word of cheer. 
No time to speak of Christ to friends, 
They’d laugh at me, I’d fear. 

No time, no time, too much to do, 
That was my constant cry; 
No time to give to souls in need 
But at last the time, the time to die.
I went before the Lord, 
I came, I stood with downcast eyes, 
For in his hands God held a book; 
It was the book of life. 
God looked into his book and said, 
“Your name I cannot find. 
I once was going to write it down…. 
But never found the time.” 

Now do you have the time to pass it on?
