Rejection

He looked at me as if I was mad There is no life, nothing after I am dead There is no heaven or a hell to dread Life came from scum, by evolution bred I dont need your saviour who for sins bled Anyway I am not a sinner, I am not that bad I don't rape or rob banks or innocent blood shed I can't follow Jesus as there's much fun to be had With these words my presence he fled I was left feeling downcast and very sad Oh Lord open my friend's eyes I inwardly said. You, My friend what will your response be Will you also close your eyes and refuse to see Will you also ignore the Saviour's plea Or will you listen to Him who died on the tree While we were yet sinners for our sins died He And He beckons the weary come to me And off all your sins be completely free I am the gracious creator, I don't need a fee Come to live with joy, in heaven, live eternally
