It is time

2000 years ago a man lived and died
We're counting the years since then
But we forgot why
We're looking for comfort and loving the flowers
We're guarding our riches and saving the power

Now once in a year we are remembering him
We celebrate Christmas and we sing a few hymns
We're giving some presents, we're giving relief
If a stranger should ask us, we'd show some grief

It is time
To understand what He meant with His words
It is time
To feel how to deal with His love
It is time
To give a hand to the people outside
It is time
For the truth and time for the light

2000 years ago he told us some words
We boiled them down and got them preserved
Now once in a year we're tasting the jam
We're praising the sweetness but don't comprehend

Is it time to return and teach us once more
To show us the meaning and open the door?
Is it time to come back and lend us a hand?
Is it time for a start or time for THE END?
