Am I Truly Concerned With Reaching the Lost
The lost souls of this world—
am I concerned?
While so many without Christ
in the wrong direction have turned???
With each day that
passes me by...
To many of my neighbors,
I’ve only said: “Hi!”
I’m too busy to give anyone
part of my time...
I go to church on Sundays...
I’ve “committed no crime.”
I’ve never led a person in
the sinner’s prayer...
“Why should I waste my time?”
“Why should I care?”
I know that Jesus commands
me to reach the lost...
But I’ve never sacrificed
what this would cost.
I know that when Jesus
comes back again...
He’ll expect me to reach
the lost souls of men.
If one day I plan to make
heaven my goal!
There must be a desire in my heart
in reaching the lost soul!
