Don't Hold Back

You’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout that day, standin’ by the water’s side,
With a prayer down deep inside, where trust and truth collide.
Jehovah’s arms are open wide, His mercy’s yours to claim,
Don’t wait for some tomorrow — answer when He calls your name.

You say, “I ain’t perfect,” well, none of us are near,
But your heart is what He sees, your love is what He’ll hear.
So take that step in faith right now, don’t let the doubts roll in,
Jehovah smiles each time you turn your back on sin.

You’ve counted up the cost, thought, “The world’s too hard to lose,”
But peace with God’s a treasure — the wiser life you choose.
Trade silver dreams for Kingdom gold that never fades away,
The joy you’ll find in serving Him grows brighter every day.

Some friends might take it slower, but your race is yours to run,
Your faith don’t wait for others’ hearts before your work’s begun.
Dedication’s personal — a promise, clear and true,
You’re not alone, for He walks every mile with you.

You’ve read the psalms and felt them stir the courage in your soul,
Each verse a little whisper sayin’, “Child, reach your goal.”
The time to act’s not later — the time is here and now,
So kneel before Jehovah, renew your heartfelt vow.

Now’s the time, don’t hold back,
Let your heart stay on track.
Through the waters, take His hand,
And rise to live just as He planned!

Some say, “The end’s not near, I’ve got years to get it right,”
But the dawn is fast approaching; don’t gamble with the night.
Be ready when that trumpet sounds, with faith that stands the fire,
The Lord’s day’s drawing closer — keep your lamps up higher.

Remember Lot’s dear wife, how she turned to what she knew,
Her heart looked back on Sodom, and sorrow followed through.
The world can’t give you life, no matter what it brings,
So fix your eyes on Heaven’s road and everlasting things.

Each prophecy fulfilled shows the end is drawing near,
But what’s ahead is paradise — no sorrow, pain, or fear.
This system fades like sunset, but His promise lights the sky,
So set your course for baptism, let that old life die.

The eunuch saw the water and asked with faith so pure,
“What hinders me from serving God? My heart is clean and sure.”
And when he came up from that stream, the joy began to flow,
The same can fill your spirit, if you’re ready now to go.

Jehovah’s arms will guide you as you walk the narrow way,
He’ll bless the steps you’re taking; tomorrow starts today.
You’ll find that peace you’ve longed for — your spirit strong and new,
So work toward your baptism; He’s waiting there for you.

No fear, no doubt, let faith be your song,
Jehovah’s love will keep you strong.
Each sunrise brings His mercy near,
The time to act is now, my dear—

Now’s the time, don’t hold back,
Let your heart stay on track.
Through the waters, take His hand,
And rise to live just as He planned!
