Amy Grant's song 'It's Too Late' is a direct call to decision and commitment in the Christian faith. The lyrics urge listeners to stop wavering between light and darkness, and to choose a side rather than living in a lukewarm or indecisive state. Grant emphasizes that faith cannot be based on fleeting emotions or a middle-ground approach, as such a foundation will not withstand trials. The song challenges believers to move beyond superficial talk and align their lives with the light they claim to have found, making a firm choice to follow Christ wholeheartedly.

[Chorus:]
Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line
Oh, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose your side
Yes it's too late for flirting with the darkness
Make up your mind
Oh the time has come for making a decision
And you say you found the light
But the talk is cheap when I see the way you're living
Walking in the night
[Chorus]
Well, it's too late for walking in the middle
Too late to try
Yes it's too late for sitting in the balance
No more middle line
Oh, it's too late for thinking you can walk the middle line
Better get wise.
You may think you can live by your feelings
Different every night
But an emotional religion will crumble at our feet
If we're made to stand and fight
Well, it's too late for walking on fences
Time to choose your side
Yes it's too late for flirting with the darkness
Please make up your mind
Well it's too late for thinking you can walk the middle line
Better get wise.
[Chorus]
