"Time Will Reveal" is a single by DeBarge and released in September 1983 as the first single off the group's third album, In a Special Way on the Gordy label.

By 1983, DeBarge was riding off the crossover success of their 1982 second album, All This Love, which included the title track and "I Like It".

Boosted by its success, the group recorded a similar album with In a Special Way.

Among the songs chosen for a single was the crossover hit "Time Will Reveal", which was written by sister Bunny DeBarge & brothers El and Bobby.
