COME… (poetry)
January 19, 2021
There is a place called intimacy That you and I need to be Close to Creator, the Lord is He So at the end of our days we’ll be free Free from this earth, the sadness , the tares Of the things in the darkness unseen Free from the never-ending pull on our flesh That tear us apart at the seams Life as we know it was not meant to be This state we are in - is not eternally But it’s here that we choose how things will be Heaven or hell for all eternity A paradise is waiting just for you But the way it’s set up, friend, you have to choose To trust in our Savior and stay close to Him Or follow the faker and be blindly sucked in Yes, He does let us, make our own choice It wouldn’t be heaven if you didn’t have that voice You must choose to really want to be there Your Father in heaven wants you to care Care about Him and others He’s made How wonderful a place He has gone and prepared Paid for our sins so we could be clean Leave behind the darkness and spirits so mean This is not a fantasy It will happen so quick The whole earth will change So sudden, so sick Here on the earth, We’ll reap what we’ve sown So much destruction On this land will be thrown Open your eyes and pray it be so That you come into faith so truly you’ll know How to repent, His blood freely flows Wash out your robes and be ready to go As we join to our Savior, all pain melts away As He fills us with joy on that wonderful day I want you to be there, my heart cries out I was sent by the Savior, this message to shout Cling to Him sweetly Seek out His Word So when things start to happen You’ll already have heard God wants you to be ready To be safely in Him So He can protect you Bring you safely in Into His presence In a beautiful place That He’s prepared for you With the human race Of those that have chosen And want to be there That choice is important That’s why we are here God so loved the world That He gave us His Son The door into heaven He valiantly won.
