The trumpet sounds like a worldwide alarm clock
The dead rise, this might come as a shock
The day the grave will be unlocked
I've seen so many turn away, the one's had no doubt
If you've been around, you know what I'm talking about
On fire but now their burning out
Don't they know that this is a long road
The race we run's a marathon
And all I want to say, is I'm not here to stay
Life ends and I don't mind,
Just wake me up on time
Just wake me up on time
Do you ever think about what you'll become?
The reason why it's not a game but a race we run
Who reigns are those who overcome
You don't have to finish first, just stay on track
Turn not right or left but straight up the path
There are those who run that will turn back
When Jesus goes, are you gonna follow?
Even when you feel you can't go on
And all I want to say, is I'm not here to stay
Life ends and I don't mind,
Just wake me up on time
And all I want to say, is I'm not here to stay
And I don't care as long, as I can finish strong
Just wake me up on time,
Just wake me up on time
Don't they know that this is a long road
The race we run's a marathon
And all I want to say is I'm not here to stay
Life ends and I don't mind,
Just wake me up on time
And all I want to say is I'm not here to stay
And I don't care as long, as I can finish strong
Just wake me up on time,
Just wake me up on time
