It's My Time

Ooh, ooh, ooh
 When I was born, my mama took me and held me in the sun
 She looked in my eyes, my mama was wise
 She said, "Girl, your day will come
 The world is cold, but faith in God can warm the darkest night
 But nothing happens by itself, you got to work to make things right"
 As time went by, my mama's words seemed like a disdain dream
 I completely forgot the golden rules
 And my soul was far from being clean
 But just when things seemed that they're worse
 And I completely lost my way
 My mama's voice filled up my mind, and I could hear her say
 "It's your time, the world is yours to own
 It's your time, yours and yours alone
 It's your time, let dates show you the way
 It's your time each and every day (every day)"
 The path through life can turn right, but sometimes, it turns wrong
 But if we learn from our mistakes, it only makes us strong
 The answer is in our distant past with the innocence of a child
 The love and guidance of my mom
 Filled me with the strength to smile (smile)
 And it's my time to walk with my sweet Lord
 It's my time to accept His rich rewards
 It's my time to sing and shout so free
 It's my time, come and walk with me
 Just a closer walk with Thee
 Grant it, Jesus, if You please
 It's our time to walk with our sweet Lord
 It's our time to accept His rich rewards
 It's our time to sing and shout so free
 It's our time
 It's our time to walk with our sweet Lord
 It's our time to accept His rich rewards
 It's our time to sing and shout so free
 It's our time, come and walk with me
