Take the Risk
Some people hate risks
Fun is banned in quick whisks
More and more are afraid
The rules are only to be obeyed.
No appeals, no changes
Loving just rearranges
A cookie will break
Is the risk they'll take
But as they wipe away the smile
They enjoy the taste all the while.
"No more pain", they plead
It hurts to bleed.
Only what's carefully planned
Comfortable or canned.
With a plan "C" or at least a "B"
A life of risks is too risky.
Just with plan "A"
"Please God", they pray.
What is a risk anyway?
Faith, Love, Trust and obey.
"Vengeance is Mine", says the Lord
His wrath will be outpoured.
Trust His justice and step out
Take the risk, just don't doubt.
All will be revealed
God's will is sealed.
His forgiveness is sure
Over each heart and soul secure.
But we have to ask
If in His love we'll bask.
