Monday
The Williamsons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before it's gone
Could you read the Bible with me?
Help me learn to love God's Word?
Show me how to pray believing He hears every word?
but in all the work you're doing do you ever take the time to steal away, And would there be some time for us to pray together
They may never say these words out loudly, and really they shouldn't have to
Show them how to pray believing He hears every word
To show them how a Christian lives on Monday!
The Williamsons's song Monday has a clear message about the importance of taking time to teach someone about Jesus. The song begins with a plea to someone to take some time out of their day to teach the singer about Jesus before the day is over. The singer asks for help in understanding the Bible and learning to love God's Word. They want to be shown how to pray and believe that every word is heard by God.
The chorus of the song asks if the listener ever takes time to "steal away" and pray with someone else. It emphasizes the importance of taking time to pray together, especially at the end of a long day. The final verse of the song makes it clear that the message is not just about one person's relationship with Jesus, but about showing others how to pray and live as Christians on a Monday. The listener is encouraged to show others how to pray and how to live a Christian life every day of the week.
Overall, the message of the song is clear: taking time out of our busy lives to teach others about Jesus and pray together is a crucial part of living a Christian life.

Lyrics
Train up a child in the way he should go
And when he is old
He will not depart from it
Proverbs 22:6
Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord Psalm 1273
Mama, I've heard you sing in church
Of God's amazing grace
And I know you know the one you sing about
And mama, I know you're awful busy
When we're all at home
But I never see you get your bible out
I understand there's work to do
And only so much time to get it done
But could you take some time to teach me
About Jesus before this day is gone?
Before it's gone
Could you read the bible with me?
Help me learn to love God's word?
And show me how to pray believing He hears every word?
You don't have to preach a sermon
Like the preacher does on Sunday
To show me how a christian lives on Monday
Daddy, you say that I should live a life to be proud of
But you teach me so much more by what you do
And daddy, I know you're busy working to give us a home
And I'm thankful that we can depend on you (depend on you)
But in all the work you're doing
Do you ever take the time to steal away? (Steal away)
And would there be some time for us to pray together
Before we say goodnight at the ending of our day?
Could you read the bible with me?
Help me learn to love God's word?
And show me how to pray believing He hears every word?
You don't have to preach a sermon
Like the preacher does on Sunday
To show me how a christian lives on Monday
They may never say these words out loud
And really they shouldn't have to, oh no
If our children are to know about the lord
Then there's just one thing we can do
One thing we can do
Read the bible with them
Help them learn to love God's word
Show them how to pray believing he hears every word
You don't have to preach a sermon
Like the preacher does on Sunday
To show them how a christian lives on Monday
