Seemed to take forever, then some.
The day to say goodbye was here
“Follow my Son and do not fear.”
Parents taught me right and wrong
To praise God’s Son with prayer and song.
I chose to follow God’s only Son
Baptized in water, I had won!
Mem’ries of life with God were gone
To a life of joy and sorrow drawn.
Suff’ring seems to win the day
Is there really no other way?
Why can’t I just enjoy my life?
Commandments seem to bring me strife.
My eyes now dimmed from God’s true light
The urge in me is now to fight.
As this battle rages strong
I hear a voice, “Could God be wrong?”
I start to listen, then repent
I then recall Him whom God had sent.
The words I hear within my heart
“Come follow me, that is a start.”
One step back is all it takes
To fix all of my many mistakes.
You cannot follow in the dark
Jesus Christ creates the spark.
That spark then becomes a flame
That Satan cannot ever tame.
Do not fall for his endless lies
They trap you as a web does flies.
God’s the only way to survive
And for His glory we must Strive.
Our reward for choosing light
Is being on the side of right.
The words of His Son will always be
“I am the way, Come Follow me!”
