As a Man Believeth
Jesus once walked the earth
so long ago
Have you been born again,
they ask me fervantly,
than pass me by
to rob my neighbor
Have you been born again
someone asks me again
as they spit in my eye,
telling another lie.
Have you walked with Jesus
as they spread rumors abroad
I believe in Jesus
He walked this earth in power
they ask me if i believe
but, i don't think they do
He can heal the sick
He can lead you to make right choices
but, i don't think they ask Him
i don't believe they know Him.
Have they talked with Him,
He has talked with me,
but, they don't believe me,
they don't believe He speaks at all,
they are ready for my fall,
but, i don't fall easily,
I believe in Jesus
I walk with Jesus
and He talks to me.
Someone once said,
"the way you can tell
if someone is truly converted
is by the way they treat others,"
i believe this is true
if they were born againers
and walked with Jesus
they would believe and follow
all the words Jesus spoke.
