Do We Listen

Do We Listen

Jesus died and so did John

Very few then at their deaths came to mourn

Both treated by most as scum and garbage

Save for those few disciples of the age

But the message given by our Lord lived on

Growing every day amidst the heathens and their scorn

Throughout the centuries His Words have rung true

Yet there are still many opposed too

Even today after almost two-thousand years

The message still falls on so many deaf ears

We do not listen and do not heed

That for us and our sins and to end death did our Lord rise from that horrible deed

His Glorious Crucifixion and Resurrection

That in itself should spur constant action

But as in the early days of Christianity

The Devil’s grip is still on many

Pray for them and in your heart this Advent season prepare

For one day He will arrive our Savior

For this world to Him one day will be returned

And the evil one will be eternally burned

Amen
