Take The Time - Mordechai Ben David
The English Collection

(By request)

Listen and you'll learn my son
For you the world has just begun
Still before you know it
You may turn around and see
That life has passed you by

Hear and heed the things I say
Think about them every day
Make of every minute
What you see when you begin it
Or it passes by

Make the time for things that count
Cherish the friends that you find
Think three times, before you shout
Always remember to be kind

Listen close when children speak
Treasure the things theat they know
The toys and tears of younger years
Carry their wisdom when they go

Buddy, can you spare a dime
Sorry, but I ain't got time
Daddy can we study please
I'm sorry son but don't you see, I can't today

Little things that come and go
Slip away before we know
The handles on the clock advance
And we who beg for second chances must obey

Take the time to do things right
Always believe what you say
Ask yourself each morning and night
Who am I closer with today
Speak to Hashem with an open heart
There isn't a shoulder so wide
There's never been a better time to start
And nothing more foolish than your pride

Listen and you'll learn my son
For you the world has just begun
Still before you know it
You may turn around and see
That life has passed you by

Every moment is so dear
And time just doesn't stop to care
Swiftly as a shadow
In a moment as we turn around
It passes by..

So,Take the time to do things right
Always believe what you say
Ask yourself each morning and night
Who am I closer with today
Speak to Hashem with an open heart
There isn't a shoulder so wide
There's never been a better time to start
And nothing more foolish than your pride
