I've written down for you letters profound and true
But I just don't think many believe
I've solemnly tried to prove Jesus died for you
Do you still think it's real, Timothy'
They got me sealed up and locked away in a room here in prison
I'm feelin' the misery -- if you can, please visit
Oh, I may not last if you wait to try
I believe it's time for me to die

Luke stayed and stuck it out
The rest of them had their doubts
And Demas he was really in love
With the world so he chose to run
To the free Thessalonians
'Cause true believers might have it rough
I've heard that our brother Crescens has now gone to Galatia
Titus was helping me but went to Dalmatia
Oh, I may not last if you take your time
I believe it's time for me to die

Time for me to die
Oh, I've got to face the decree
Time for me to die
So please hurry, Timothy
I know the church is safe with Christ
But it's time for me to die

Ooh, Timothy

But don't you know that it's time for me to die
Oh, I've got to face the decree
Time for me to die
So maybe could you hurry, Timothy'
Whoa, I know the church is safe with Christ
But it's time for me to die
It's time for me to die
It's time for me to die

2 Timothy 4:9-11
Do your best to come to me quickly, for Demas,
because he loved this world, has deserted me and
has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to
Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. Only Luke is with me.
