[Based on 2 Timothy 2:22]
You can think of times when you had the right chance
You could make a choice when nobody could see
You could think of ways of defending your deeds
Justify the way that you wanted to be
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
Hey, did you ever think twice
Something inside says stay away
Hey, did you ever think twice
When there's still time you can go the other way
Hey, did you ever think twice
If you don't stop you're gonna' pay the price
Hey, did you ever think twice
You can think of things that you wanted to try
You can think of things that you wish you could see
You could go a way that would seem so right
Thinking of a place that you wish you could be
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
Face to face with sin
You better think again, you better think again
Take another look for a second time
And give a second thought to where you draw the line
Wait just a minute
Wait just a minute
