Counting Down

Counting down the restless hours
Time is passing by so fast
Blink and you will miss the moment
Precious seconds flying past
We are good at looking forward
To the highlights coming soon
What about this very minute
How about this afternoon.

God has given us a posting
Go out in the wilderness
Show the people what they're missing
Try to help them with their mess
We are good at doing nothing
Letting others take the strain
It's our turn to feed the hungry
With the food that we contain.
