By Joel Beach
Oh, How we long to be with the Lord. Yet we meet many a sword.
His hands stretched to us all. Yet many continue to fall.
Do you seek to walk on that golden lane? And not in your sins in vain. Do you long to hear the angels sing. Yet only perceive cries of pain and sting.
To see the presence of your Lord’s face. To feel His close and warm embrace. How we all need His love to be welcomed from above.
God promises to wipe your tears away. Yet many will never know that day. I see now why we are not there yet. So many need Jesus who have not yet met.
Those of this world go to and fro. Having no direction of which way to go. They need to hear the Savior’s call. The Gospel must be proclaimed, yes, proclaimed to all.
All have broken God’s holy Law; they lie and steal; they do it all.
It breaks God’s heart to make a full end to a place of punishment He surely will send.
Hatred, disobedience, murder, and more all crimes against God, He does abhor. Hell is His prison of woe and pain, suffering, and anguish, where punishments reign.
But God loved you so very much, your soul He wants to touch.
Did you know Jesus died for your sin and took the wrath of God that you may be made new within.
He died, was buried, and rose again, now sits on a throne, your soul He can mend. Turn from your sins, repent, and confess; He will forgive and clean up your horrible mess.
Follow, obey, seek Him, and call Him Lord; never look away, and great will be your reward. Some day in Heaven, you will rejoice and shout, joy and blessing, forever joyfully lived out!
Don’t wait another moment, don’t even delay, cry out in repentance, and do it today! He is waiting to hear your humble cry. His love for you is great; in Him, you can rely.
This is the most important decision of your life; if you ignore it, it will cut like a knife. Run to the Lord; He is waiting for you; give everything to Him, to the One who is faithful and true.
