Amen
Would you realize if He was standing right by your side
For as hard as He continually tries you stay right in stride
Walking your own way in the making of all your own rules
In not having the time to pray joining the rest of the fools
Yet with you He still walks, always walking before you
In wanting to have these talks about what is really true
He stays there ready to forgive even the most horrid sin
But your only reason to live is to go out there to win
And yet with you there He stays upon each new wrong way
Having never offered any praise nor did you choose to pray
Still by your side He stands, just waiting for you to respond
For the Lord does not make demands in completing this bond
Turn around today for we are not guaranteed tomorrow
Continuing upon your present way will only end up in sorrow
But it’s that joy you will lose that will haunt you the most
When you only had to choose, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost
