The Answer

Why is salvation so hard to believe?
Why is forgiveness so hard to achieve?
Is a loving nature that hard to obtain?
Is everyone evil and going insane?

Is this life all about fortune and fame?
Forgetting the person,their feelings,and name.
Ignoring the family to get a promotion,
turning your back on prayer and devotion.

A world without forgiveness is one hollow shell.
A world without salvation is almost in Hell.
Are these two things so hard to do?
Has the world lost hope without any clue?

Salvation is here for all to accept.
Forgiveness is Jesus paying our debt.
Salvation is simply grace from above.
Forgiveness is simply choosing to love.
