FULL LYRICS:
If not now, tell me when
If not now, tell me when
We may never see this moment or place in time again
If not now, if not now, tell me when

I see sorrow and trouble in this land
I see sorrow and trouble in this land
Although there will be struggle, we'll make the change we can
If not now, if not now, tell me when

If not now, tell me when
If not now, tell me when
We may never see this moment or place in time again
If not now, if not now, tell me when

I may never see the promised land
I may never see the promised land
And yet we'll take the journey and walk it hand in hand
If not now, tell me when

If not now, tell me when
If not now, tell me when
We may never see this moment or place in time again
If not now, if not now, tell me when

We'll work it 'til it's done, every daughter, every son
Every soul that's ever longed for something better, something brighter

It will take a change of heart for this to mend
It will take a change of heart for this to mend
But miracles do happen, every shining now and then
If not now, if not now, tell me when

If not now, tell me when
If not now, tell me when
We may never see this moment or place in time again
If not now, if not now, tell me when.
