Tick-Tock… Tick-Tock… Tick-rock
No matter the sound of your clock
Jesus Christ is, was and always will be
“The Gospel.” God’s plan for you and me.

Jesus became man in the flesh …Emmanuel
God on earth … to live with us for a spell
Jesus lived, walked, mingled and taught
No price can I pay … He cannot be bought.
So with Jesus being flesh and blood
Just like you and me … Yet he would.

In tears, sweat and blood. Offer Himself
Death on a cruel cross… He took my place.
Would I consider such a price at any level
God did … Jesus won over death and devil
One would think death to be the ultimate
But that was only a latch opening the gate.

God raised up Jesus … from the dead
Atoning blood … for the price on my head
The Gospel … Jesus is really good news
Penalty… Sacrifice … Expiration… Life Anew.
It seems only right to have faith

In the ONE who perfected the Way.
Believing in Jesus, our Savior and Christ
Not ashamed to share him; at any price.
Time was created for earth and man
Just another part of God’s great plan
Life is … one tick at a time on a clock
Tick-Tock… Tick-Tock… Tick-Took
