A Moment of Belief
Wise words will tell you
To follow all of your dreams
And that the only goal in life
Is to ultimately succeed
And that you can visualize
And set a goal
In order to achieve
But I ask you now
What’s the good of that
If you never took a day
And Gave it to God
And opened Your heart just to believe
See, we keep falling down
For temptation and lies
Like children skinning our knees
Until Our lives are spinning out of control
Like seeds from maple trees
Caught up with the desires of violence
Different drugs And the call of greed
And in the end we end up selling out
And giving up on all of our dreams
When we live with greed in our heart
We become stretched beyond our means
Spending and bending to get what we want
Only those that truly feel me
Will Know exactly what I mean
And life to those who have understanding
Know life Is so much more than it may seem
And they know these things in life
are just a distraction
The ends will never justify the means
Theres so much innocent blood
Being heartlessly spilled up in these streets
Don’t you know the devil is a liar?
He came only to kill destroy deceive
And to prevent you from having
Blessings to receive
But I solemnly do believe
That Jesus has the keys to your cell
And He can set You free
He is still hard at work
With His earthly ministry
And there’s plenty of proof
One of those proofs being me
There’s so much more to God
When you are humbled to your knees
When your Heart is hanging heavy
And your World weary when you grieve..
There is a place that you can go
To Spiritually find reprieve
The Fathers Hands are wide open
His arms are ready to receive
It Grieves Him to see us
Being misled and deceived
See, He Created Us perfectly
But Sin distorted the essence of the Seed
Twisted and corrupted
Until Cain made His Brother Able bleed
Jealousy distorts emotions
And we confuse our wants
As being our needs
Every Saint has a past
And every sinner has a future
And all it takes is a moment of belief
To erase the you who you were
Scripture says anyone that is in Christ
The new creation has come
Blessed be and let it be
And believe in the Risen One
Now go and put on the new man.
