come the time come the man?
When the time has come it does not matter what god you believe in, what really matters is your faith, i don't care what faith it is but I do know you will either cry for your god, or you will cry for your mother , that is the nature of mankind, no matter what creed or colour you are.

Not sure what "time" you are talking about. Gotterdamerung? Armageddon? The appointment of Tony "the war criminal" Blair to the position of President of Europe?
Incidentally, the quote you had in mind is:
Cometh the hour,
Cometh the man.

I've always interpreted "Cometh the hour, cometh the man" as meaning ''When a time of need arises, a man to do the job will appear.''
In times of crisis people look for a capable leader to get them out of trouble and the actual crisis seems to stir up someone's inner abilities and make them rise to the challenge. Examples of this are Winston Churchill, Mahatma Ghandi and George Washington.
"Cometh the hour, cometh the man" is a proverb, by the way, not a quote from the Bible.
