Lost and Found
To lose one’s faith is such a great disaster.
Life falls apart, disintegrates, and dies.
Climb back again. We have an amazing Master.
A man I know lost faith, and his life’s design.
He gave up hope, and took to pity’s resign.
To lose one’s faith is such a great disaster.
He broke a heart, a marriage, and kept the kids
But shredded them too, for lack of vision’s skids.
Climb back again. We have and amazing Master.
His wife forgot her passion for truth’s wild fire,
And wandered, lost, into world’s framed by desire.
To lose one’s faith is such a great disaster.
But God was on her case. He never left her,
And brought her longing heart within His spur.
She climbed back again to her amazing Master.
The tale goes on, for the children need to know
Why father’s fall had made them suffer so,
Why losing faith is such a great disaster.
Climb back again. We’ve such an amazing Master.
