Where Are You Lord ~

Lord, where are You,
when are you coming for me?
for in the darkness of this world
Your light I can no longer see.

I don’t understand,
I just don’t get it . . .
and right now my soul
needs from You a lift.

Where are you now,
where are you taking me
there is so much going on
that I don’t want to see.

For my soul is broken,
and it aches . . .
for the unsaved
it truly breaks.

Dark and light,
just do not mix
and only You
have the fix.

I am caught in a world,
that is bitter-sweet
and I am up against
so many I meet.

Lord, You are the only hope
that I cling to
and I so need Your light
to come shining through.

So, I say come Lord Jesus,
do not tarry . . .
for the burden of this world
my heart  can no longer carry!

Isaiah 5:20
King James Version

“Woe unto them that call evil good,
and good evil; that put darkness for light,
and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet,
and sweet for bitter!”

Harden Not Your Heart ~

Harden not your heart,
to your spiritual condition
let it not turn cold
by your selfish ambition.

Let it not turn to stone,
like the rebellious one
let it not become distant
by a grumbling tongue.

Harden not your heart,
to the Holy Spirit’s leading
let it not turn cold
by the sins you’re keeping.

Let it not become rigid,
by careless drifting
let it not be stubborn
by the life you’re living.

Harden not your heart,
by disbelief or doubt
let it not turn cold
by shutting the Word out..

Let it not turn you away,
from the hope of eternal peace
let it not turn to ice
let not your faith in God cease !

Hebrews 3:13
King James Version

“But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day;
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.”
