And the rest is history. Good going, Charlie!

Lyrics:
Mama left me her Bible that had pointed my soul toward the light
She’d warned me to watch for idols and taught me to always do right
She read each word so preciously and prayed I’d treasure every verse
But I turned from the Bible and did not keep Jesus first

It’s time to put Jesus first and read God’s word and pray
I want less from this world and more of God every day
Let me get on my knees and pray so long until it hurts
As my time on earth’s running out give me time to put Jesus first

Today I picked up the Bible my mama left me so long ago
I read the words so vital that had set her heart aglow
Its pages all worn and tattered as God gave her such a thirst
To teach me to do what matters and to know to put Jesus first

Mama, I know your tears that for the wayward son you shed
And mama, God heard your prayers and I see His footsteps ahead

It’s time to put Jesus first and read God’s word and pray
I want less from this world and more of God every day
Let me get on my knees and pray so long until it hurts
As my time on earth’s running out give me time to put Jesus first

It’s time to put Jesus first and read God’s word and pray
I want less from this world and more of God every day
Today I opened the Bible my mama left me so long ago
I read the words so vital that had set her heart aglow
Mama left me her Bible that had pointed my soul toward the light
She’d warned me to watch for idols and taught me to always do right
