Back In My Little Town

You can see it so clearly today, unlike you could before
Mankind making its way unaware of what's in store
The stage is nearly set, but for God's Patient Hand
The One who paid your, debt so few people understand

In the filling out of Revelation, an oblivion to the enemy
For if God is not in the equation they can no longer see
This now so apparent, and some having become immune
A self-inflicted impairment, conscience wickedly out of tune

Need I say anymore but on what the Lord has said
Mankind is wicked to its core and its soul is dead
Yet Jesus took all that blame, your deepest, darkest shame
Life is not a game, but the time to glorify His Name

Soon be the harvest the chaff separated from the wheat
The Lord's not looking for the best just those without deceit
Now is the time to act in the reaching out for His Hand
Especially in  things where you lack, He will truly understand

Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around
 like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour
1 Peter 5:8

Thank you Sunshine! I know it seems a ittle rough, but the world just seems to be going out of control more than usual. Take care and God bless!
