We have pat answers in the Church, so many don’t have to search,
Their very own hearts deep within, concerning issues related to sin.
Some simply shoot from the hip, when answering to the fellowship,
About the many sins we tolerate, even while all sin, God does hate.

We are very quick to quote scripture, to make a clear word picture,
Of how other men fell short too, as a sure excuse for me and you.
Although we are more accountable, to know and follow God’s Will,
Having the Holy Spirit dwelling inside, gives us the power to abide.

We know of Truths we’ve heard, exposited from God’s Holy Word,
That we’re not to live like men, of this world that stand condemned.
At times we’re complacent at best, when the Church is put to a test,
Not willing to take a bold stand, though secure in God’s Holy hand.

As days become darker every day, are we leaving that narrow way?
Are we encumbered in sin and care, leading us to spiritual despair?
Are we hindered by spiritual blight, of a land which needs our light?
And have we lost our mission friend, as this age comes to an end?

We need to come together again, as believers who are Born Again,
To stand in unity for The Savior, to not condone ungodly behavior,
As Christ’s beacon and a light, to rescue others from amoral plight,
So they can too rest assured, in the eternal answer, Christ our Lord.
