Be Straight Poem by Anthony Raymond

This is the time to be straight
No more time for us to hesitate
The Kingdom of God is at hand
A line of truth drawn in the sand

Make ready the way of the Lord
This is the time we were born for
Voices crying out his Holy name
The Christ is coming, be straight

Repent; be set free from all sin
No matter where you have been
Be cleansed from every desire
The Holy Spirit will set you on fire

The dawning of a glorious season
His saving grace is the reason
Lift your voices; proclaim his name
The time is at hand - - be straight!
