A Child of God

Lord, would you paint me a picture of the things You’d have me to do. Paint it in Your likeness, with all Your strength to hold onto. Send me on my journey but never leave my side, Beside the still waters and mountains tall with valleys wide. Upon the mighty oceans and across her lovely shores, As we spread your word to others in search of open doors. Giving praise to You amongst my friends it really brightens up my day. Standing tall and telling all is quite the Christian way. We must reach out to spread Your word, Speak it soft or shout it loud at least till all have heard. We mustn’t leave a rock or stone unturned, And bring to Him lost souls to save and teach them if they haven’t learned. Tread not lightly on these words I speak, For lost souls is what our Father seeks. Turn this day from your sinful ways and any unholy deed. His written words are there for all of us to heed. Upon His return will you run and hide in hopes He won’t see you? You know yourself the things you’ve done, so tell me what will you do? Don’t wait till it’s too late and there is no way out, Surrender it all now to Jesus, then you to will know what it’s all about. He will forgive you all your sins and wash you spotless clean, Born again, a child of God, this is what Christianity really means.
