In the Ghetto

by Catherinebutterfly

The world is in a sad state

Make no mistake

Daily we fall by the way side

Daily we move on fully blinded

Leaving the truth and Jesus behind

 

Walking away from the Heavenly Gate

We’ve best to turn around before it’s too late

 

It’s so sad; the good the bad are all dying

Sometimes it feels like a crime

Bringing an innocent child into this terrible realm

That we live in

 

Everyone is dying

From the conflicts of sin.

That we human’s have found ourselves in.

 

Everybody’s going mad

Gone mad, is mad

Pick up the paper or turn on the news

Children can’t even go to school,

 

So many dead, so many dying

Because of desires to commit foolish crimes

This sinfulness plays the greatest of parts

In the unguarded heart.

A position Believer shouldn’t be in.

 

But the fact is,

People in this world die each day

At home children can’t even go out to play

Nothing is safe,

Nothing is secure

Because thugs wanna take over the streets

Because of wars between nations and people who disagree

On a wide array of issues man truly isn’t free

 

Reason enough why we must all do our part each day

To share the love and hope we have in Jesus Christ

The Son of God who paid the Price

That all men may have eternal life

 

People worldwide have the opportunity

To accept Him by faith so their eternal home with God is insured.
