Irresistible
“… Choose you this day whom ye will serve; … but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15 of the King James Bible
Irresistible choice…
Yet disturbing my poise
With painful guilty noise---
Bye… I want to rejoice!
Irresistible claim…
Offering fortune’s fame
As well as friendship’s flame---
Please free me from sin’s game!
Irresistible chance…
Midst stardom’s elegance
Clothed with great arrogance---
Now, I follow God’s stance!
Irresistible call…
Toward heavenly hall
Smiting eternal fall---
Yes, Lord, to serve I shall!
