Cries

Cries of souls now long past Cries of pain from sins dark cast Cries of pride that stood so tall Cries of men who ignored His Call Cries of hurt that no one cared To spread His word so souls were spared Cries of sorrow that times to short For soon each one will face His court Cries of knowledge unable to share Cries for souls they can not spare Cries of one who spread His word But saw rejection and no heart stirred Cries for those almost persuaded But turned so cold and heart now faded Cries of hope all through this land Oh Cry to Him while YOU still can

this is a wonderfully written poem i loved it and it really struck a chord with me that line " cries of sorrow that times to short" perfectly put, and a true honest feeling that we all have. i have to ask you i am religious but i dont know what to think about this whole end of the world thing, i think that if god was going to end the world he wouldnt want us to know the date. well i really loved this poem it was inspirational to live your life for god while you have a chance =)jo
