Tell Me the Time Whitecross

Went walking, people were a gawkin
Saw him like a many times before
He was dirty, a little topsy turvy
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?"
Nerves were jumpin, my heart start to pumpin
As he looked up, I started to pray

"Dear Lord, please give me wisdom
Help me to be lead."
He walked up to me, looked right at me
And this is what he said

"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'll make it clear
If you listen, I'll tell you the time!

Well I told him, the lies the Devil sold him
Would only bring him 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 burden, 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
