My children are out
To a movie no doubt
They said they'd be late getting in
They say I worry to much
About their late hours and such
But it hurts to know they're living in sin
We're one minute closer to sundown
Eternity is nearing I know
We're one minute closer to sundown
We've just a few minutes to go
My loved ones are out in the darkness
How I pray before to late they'll prepare
Please bring them home safely dear JESUS
Protect them with YOUR love and care
We're one minute closer to sundown
Eternity is nearing I know
We're one minute closer to sundown
We've just a few minutes to go
From my window I can see
My children coming home to me
Thank YOU LORD for hearing my prayer
I'll read the Bible to them now
And get the message through somehow
Blessed JESUS help them listen to me
We're one minute closer to sundown
Earths time is fast running low
We're one minute closer to sundown
We've just few minutes to go
