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.
