2003,  WHAT KIND OF A YEAR WILL IT BE?

ANOTHER YEAR HAS COME AND GONE AND WE FACE A BRAND NEW YEAR,
WILL IT BE A TIME FOR GLADNESS, OR WILL IT BE A TIME OF FEAR?
AS WE FACE WAR WITH IRAQ, AND NOW NORTH KOREA IS READY TOO,
WE HUMBLY PRAY TO GOD FOR WISDOM, SO OUR LEADERS WILL KNOW WHAT TO DO.

THE ECONOMY HAS BEEN DOWN WITH LAYOFFS ALMOST EVERYWHERE,
JOBS CLOSING DOWN AND BUSINESSES TRIMMING BACK TO LOW GEAR.
ATHEISTS AND ANTI-GOD FORCES ON THE MOVE IN OUR FAIR LAND,
TO REMOVE GOD FROM EVERYTHING FOR WHICH CHRISTIANS STAND.

HOW MUCH LONGER WILL GOD WITHHOLD JUDGMENT ON THESE REBELS OF HATE?
IS THERE A CHANCE OF REVIVAL BEFORE IT IS FOREVER TOO LATE?
ONE THING I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED, COULD IT POSSIBLY BE?
THAT IN 2003, JESUS WILL COME BACK FOR YOU AND FOR ME?

COULD 2003 BE THE YEAR WHEN THE DAY OF GRACE WILL COME TO AN END?
AND ALL MEN EVERYWHERE WILL HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE GOD AND THEIR KNEES TO BEND?
IF GOD DOESN'T JUDGE AMERICA, SODOM AND GOMORRAH DIDN'T GET BY YOU SEE,
ON THEM HE BROUGHT DIVINE JUDGMENT, HOW CAN AMERICA GET BY OR GO FREE?

MANKIND HAS HAD EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO ACCEPT GOD AND HIS LOVE AND GRACE,
NOW IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT GOD BEGAN TO DO HOUSE CLEANING IN THIS PLACE.
SO WE HAD BETTER GET READY TO MEET GOD, OUR TIME HERE IS ALMOST GONE,
THAT GOD WILL COME AND TAKE HIS SAINTS UP TO THEIR HEAVENLY HOME.
