Without Jesus What's the Purpose

I've poured over books of science Studied hard the ancient arts Even spoke with bearded Guru's On the peak of mountain tops Taken classes from learned professors At top notch universities But if Jesus isn't brought up What good are they to me I've rubbed elbows with Hollywood Stars As they've rehearsed their lines Had discussions with dignitaries With Presidents I've wined and dined I have watched the worlds top athletes Some of whom I'm their biggest fan But if Jesus isn't in the process It doesn't make any sense I've seen a man walk on the moon Plant a flag beneath the stars Heard men give the greatest speeches Watched men drive the fastest cars You could say I've about done it all And in that you would be right But without Jesus in the mix There's not much good to life

I enjoyed the topic of your poem Mike, and agree completely, 'Without Jesus what's the purpose?', so aptly put.
