God's Love Never Fails

God's love never fails Some live their lives all tangled... not knowing what's in store Falling into a drunken stupor... when they wake they're wanting more Criminals are getting wiser... as innocents lie in their blood God sees every little thing they do... and HE remembers the flood Chorus And so HE gave- HIS only-begotten to save us from this sinful jail... If only- we repent and obey HIM That's when...God's love never fails There are fatherless children... needy widows suffer too They cry out to powers of heaven... And HE knows just what to do Some women kill their unborn child... then dejectedly look away They don't know if they're forgiven... scared to face their judgement day Chorus And so HE gave- HIS only-begotten to save us from this sinful jail... If only- we repent and obey HIM That's when...God's love never fails Some steal to make a living... train their kids to do the same But, they don't know about their Maker they don't even know HIS name Greedy men who love their money... They'd sell their mother for a dime Sunday's come and go while they're on their yacht For God there just isn't time Chorus And so HE gave- HIS only-begotten to save us from this sinful jail... If only- we repent and obey HIM That's when...God's love never fails Chorus And so HE gave- HIS only-begotten to save us from this sinful jail... If only- we repent and obey HIM That's when...God's love never fails That's when...God's love never fails That's when...God's love never fails repeat and fade John Derek Hamilton July 25,2019

This is a lovely read John thank you. You mentioned your sister died from smoking. I lost my Brother and his Wife to C. O. P. D. Thank you for commenting on my poem I Could Have Lived Without You.

Oh my!!! You have given me chills with these words of truth. So sad indeed. God gave His Only Son, to die for ALL. He paid the price, as He took on our sins. He gave His Life. His Love is Unconditional. And soooo many in the World could care less. "For God there just isn't time" Exactly what many think and this is how they behave. Still- God's Love Never Fails. As He doesn't anyone to be lost. Knock, and He will open the door. ~ Brandy

Thanks for commenting on this one especially Brandy, it needed to be said. Many don't want to accept the truth that we cannot continue living our lives doing as we please even if our conduct displeases God. Those who do the will of God will be saved, not those who insist on never changing to please him. Thanks again!

Spirit sent these succinct flowing lines to you intending that you share them. They are divine. I truly LOVE the rhythm and flow, it is spot on and captivating to read aloud or silently. We who are visited by our muse at the strangest of times are meant, I believe, to put words together for others to read. Everyone has such a gift inside them and its a shame man makes 'career boxes' for us to climb into rather than sharing our labor of love. All the best ... CayCay

Thanks Cay Cay for the brave first comment, I think some may be reluctant to comment, not wanting to appear judgemental, but hey when the spirit moves ya, ya gotta go with it. I remember a poem a while ago over 1000 views no comments strange huh!
