Tocandole a la puerta de oportunidad
Buscando ese momento con paciencia
Hoy yo te pido la sabiduría
Para reconocer la señal mia

Ahora es que es ni antes ni después

Como dobla el árbol cuando pasa el huracán
Como busca el cause el agua de un manantial
Como canta el gallo en madrugada su canción
Como vuela un ave en época de migración

Ahora es que es ni antes ni después

Ni antes ni después
Justo aquí donde es
Ni antes ni después
Justo aquí donde es
Otra vez, ahora es que es

Ni antes
Ni después
Ni antes
Ni después
Ni antes
Ni después
Ni antes
Ni después

—

Knocking on the door of opportunity
Patiently searching for that moment
Today I ask you for wisdom
To recognize my sign

Now is that it is neither before nor after

As a tree bends when a hurricane passes
As the water of a spring seeks its source
As a rooster crows its song at dawn
As a bird flies during migration

Now is that it is neither before nor after

Neither before nor after
Right here where it is
Neither before nor after
Right here where it is
Again, now is that it is

Neither before
Neither after
Neither before
Neither after
Neither before
Neither after

There is neither Jew nor Greek,
there is neither slave nor free,
there is no male and female,
for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
–Galatians 3:28 (ESV)–

He made from one man every nation of mankind
to live on all the face of the earth,
having determined allotted periods
and the boundaries of their dwelling place.
–Acts 17:26 (ESV)–

Do not judge by appearances,
but judge with right judgment.
–John 7:24 (ESV)–

God shows no partiality.
–Romans 2:11 (ESV)–

Truly I understand that God shows no partiality,
but in every nation anyone who fears him
and does what is right is acceptable to him.
–Peter in Acts 10:34-35 (ESV)–

Love one another:
just as I have loved you,
you also are to love one another.
–Jesus in John 13:34 (ESV)–

After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
–Revelation 7:9 (ESV)–

Correction: David Wilkerson’s The Vision (1973) doesn’t mention race riots. His vision about racial violence apparently came to him in the 80s or 90s when he was pastoring at Times Square Church. –J.B.
