Petra's song 'Test of Time' is a reflective rock anthem urging listeners to live purposefully and make choices that endure. The lyrics emphasize the fleeting nature of time and the importance of redeeming each moment, as tomorrow is not guaranteed. The song challenges believers to consider how they spend their lives, suggesting that faithful living is a test that begins now. It draws on biblical wisdom about numbering our days and making the most of every opportunity, without directly quoting scripture. The tone is urgent yet encouraging, reminding that it's not too late to pass the test of time through intentional, godly living.

One moment gone into the past
But here and now will never last
You made the most of your design
You've walked alone
You held the line
That's when you know you've passed
The test of time
The time has come, the time has gone
The time is now, but not for long
Before you take a second glance
Redeem the time and take a chance
It's not too late to pass
The test of time
And the time is passing every moment that you take
The test of time
It's the test of choices that you have to make
It's what you're doin' and how you're livin'
It's how you're spending the time you're given
The test of time
Tomorrow is a chance that may not come
Today is still the day God gives us
To see things done
Your own test of time has begun
Time will slip away
Every moment passing by
The choices that we make will stand the test of time
Time will slip away
Every moment passing by
The choices that we make will stand the test of time
