Somebody Told Me

Somebody told me to deliver this message

I'm sure you know whom I'm talking about

You see, He sees the world is full of confusion

People not knowing who to trust

No, He's wondering why we still can't be

In this world He gave us

It's about time that we submit to the master plan

And bring all this pain and war to an end

Well, He said it's about time for a brand new day

And a brand new world to begin

Somebody told me (Somebody told me to deliver this message)

And I pass it on, pass it on to you

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

And I'm sure you know who, you know who

You see, she's a child that's dying of hunger

And another man just looking good, yeah

He's wondering why that man hasn't need for thought about

Loving that baby if he could

He woke me up this morning, yes He did

And this is what He had to say

Well, He said "Get on up, go out and tell the world

That this here is a brand new day"

He woke me up (Somebody told me to deliver this message)

He said pass it on, pass it on

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure you know who

It's about time that we submit to the master plan, yes it is

And bring all this pain and war to an end

Well, well, well, He said it's about time for a brand new day

And a brand new world to begin

Somebody woke me up this morning and told me to tell you

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

He said to pass it on to you

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure that you know who

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

You see, it's a brand new day

It's a brand new day, brand new

(Somebody told me to deliver this message) Brand new

He gave us His only begotten son

So that you and I can live

You and I, you and I, you and I can live

Well

You see, a long time ago

I was about ten years old

And I heard a voice

If you read in Proverbs 25:13

You'll see where it says

"As the cold of snow in the time of harvest

So as a faithful messenger

For he refresheth the soul of his masters"

Voice said, "Get on up, get on up

Get on up and go out, and tell the world"

(Somebody told me to deliver this message)

That the time is coming, the time is coming

When the world will have to come to an end

(Somebody told me to deliver this message) Oh, you better be ready

You better be ready

Time waits for no one (Somebody told me to deliver this message)

You better be ready, children

You got to be ready
