You Don't Hold The Watch ( A Letter To The World)You don't hold the watch (A letter to the world) It's not fit for man nor beast Homeless and alone Facing humanities coldness Wondering where next We can go to To call home And yet we plod on Sometimes wishing we were never born Rendered, quartered and torn It then comes to mind Of a prayer I once heard "We pray to thee O' God Oh what have we done To face this onslaught Of bitter, blatant human scorn" It hits me then This question of ours O' Lord what have we done? We all seek the answer in what ever is our beliefs What have we done O' Lord to punish us like this? God say's You The reason is you. Jesus, Gods only son Taught not about mayhem and war He taught peace He didn't teach Hate thy neighbor But to love one another instead. And yet, we humans Has enough nerve to ask God Over and over again Why me Lord, why? Why aren't you Or What's stopping you From hearing my prayer Ring, ring, ring, Bong, bong, bong, Chime, chime, chime, And a good cockle doodle doo Wake up and smell the coffee What have we done? A good look out our windows Will give us a great view of what we Hath wrought Upon God's gift to us Ourarrogance, Ourbiasness Ourpride,Ourprejudices Ourcallousness,Ourscorn YET We are so blind to God's answer to you, me, us That it's because of us. GOD DID NOT CREATE THIS MESS! MY BIBLE, God's Word tells me in Genesis That when God created this world for us to live in "IT WAS GOOD" God, created this gift for us And what have we done? Squandered it away, Divided it up, And then will kill one another over it. So many crimes So many wars So many deaths So many, so many, so many. We are like an experiment gone wrong and are more than willing to kill ourselves and others over it in trying to fix it before the professor comes back. Jesus taught in so many words that If it aint broke, don't fix it. Go in peace. Church pews filled every Sunday First prayer of the day is O' Lord Don't let the preacher, preach On my sin today. Amen. And then leave after the Sunday service with their cup filled (until they get out of the doors , that is) knowing full well that they will have a few days to raise hell uninterrupted. Yet We call ourselves Christians Followers of Christ. Superficial, Arrogant, Prideful. IS this what Christ taught for us to follow? My Bible teaches me Love, caring, compassion In Revelations 3:16 God says that because of being lukewarm He will spat you out of His mouth Why? Well let's take going to church on Sunday to make way to start raising hell on Monday. (a superficial Christian.) Are you one of those that God is talking to today? He is saying repent Are you? Or are you one of those that carries out the door the same exact deceit in your heart that you carried into Gods house? God is saying repent Your choice , Your decision Or Are you one of those that thinks they can wait until the very last minute to say Oh, Now I Believe, and want to be saved and baptized? YOU DO FORGET ONE THING THOUGH You don't hold the watch God does And you may end up hearing "I KNOW YOU NOT" It's to late, It's to late. |
