Us and Jesus

Us & Jesus Through a looking glass you can take a peek Once this life is lived no chance to repeat Either stand for something or sit down and shut up A lone blade of grass drifting in the wind where to begin It's just us and Jesus in the game of life A splash of ginger & a pinch of spice Another chance at which to roll the dice We all live on a very thin line so often we are blind He came to open our hearts & turn the eyes of darkness to light In solemn green pastures getting lost on the edge of night Colors so sweet with ivory dripped in it's fallen dew Blackened red with a splash of grey not much more to say We must be humble enough to bow the knee to pray A rainbow bright as in a glow in the sky for all to see As we so often live in the sullen land of make believe What to soar to learn what are we to ever achieve Our dreams our achieved if we have faith in Jesus For God alone is enough in our 21st century world in a rush A pull at the flame to egnite the spark to what we are waiting for To become a beacon of hope in the night so full of fright It's us & Jesus in the game of life amidst the daily strife Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plough A challenge to be free is a question of time One day we shall see him in all of his brilliance Never look back at the plough nor give up on the fight For living with Jesus forever is way out of sight
