Get Right Church (Story)

Lyrics

Now ladies and gentlemen I want you to put your hands together And welcome Reverend Jasper Williams Jr. of the Salem Baptist Church Time Let me hear that clock Clock, clock Tick, tock Tick, tock Tick, tock God is giving you time and God is giving you time right here, right now It's not a matter, ladies and gentlemen, of how old you are How young you are Whether you're in your Tender teens Your teachable 20's Your tireless 30's Your forceable 40's Your fearful 50's Your seasoned 60's Your seven 70's Aching 80's Nebulous 90's Or prodigious 100's Time is winding up And we better set our houses in order while we got time Somebody oughta say, yes lord I don't care who you are I don't care how young you are Makes no difference where you going or how you're getting there You young people in this room, you're teenagers, You in the dawn of your life Those of you that are 20, 25, and 30, you're in the morning of your life Those of you 35, 40, and 45, you're in the noonday of your life Those of you that are 50, 55, and 60, we're in the afternoon of our lives Ah, but somebody here I said somebody here Is moving on up Around 60, 65, 70, and 75 It's getting late in the evening Oh, the sun is on its way down It's on its way down If you don't mind joining with me, Dottie like we used to Let's go back through time
