"HOW BAD?"
© 2002 Patricia L. Carpenter
"COME AND 'DINE' ~
THE MASTER CALLETH!" }
When we're feeling 'low'
& raising a great big fuss ~
Just 'how bad' do we have to be
before God 'Stops' Loving us?
When my 'thoughts'
aren't what they 'should' be ~
Is THAT when
God 'STOPS' Loving me?
Or, when my tongue
gets 'out of joint' ~
And I get 'mad'
trying to make my point?
Well, in my Bible *
as I read & pray ~
'NOTHING' in this World
will ~His Love~ 'stay'!
He filled the Sky
& the Oceans deep ~
Full of His Great Love
so, my friend, don't weep!
JESUS came & DIED
for all that SIN ~
So we could OVERCOME
& 'REALLY' WIN!
If we 'call' on God *
to help us out ~
'Repent' completely *
then we can shout!
"Hip! Hip! Hooray!
I'm 'SPECIAL' to God ~
This 'outcast' has been FORGIVEN
& given His 'nod'.
I'm so glad I looked to 'JESUS'
That 'Perfect' One ~
Now my 'Hope' lies in CHRIST
& what He's done!"
Soon this day is over
& we start again tomorrow ~
But ~ come to Jesus FIRST
before there's so much sorrow!
Don't live in 'regrets'
of past mistakes ~
Just Learn from them
& then DO what it takes!
