A Soul Winner

He that winneth souls is wise

The old black book proclaims

The fruit of the righteous a tree of life

Seeking to enter in Heaven new names



He knocks at the door with the tract in hand

And a fire burning within his heart

Giving glory to God is his highest aim

And to give a lost sinner a new start



His testimony untarnished A hard worker is he

The first to arrive and the last to leave

Throughout the work week he proves exemplary

Hoping his coworkers will soon Christ recieve



The Word he has studied diligently

He's a workman that needeth not to be ashamed

Ready to give account for the hope that is within him

He stands ready to convert the marred and defamed



"Repent and be baptized" Are his zealous cries

"Ye must be born again" is his subtle exposition

When his enemies oppose the work which he works

He stands ready to continue in his expodition



His worry is not for a flowery bed of ease

He cares not if he comes home to a hot dinner

His wife he loves, his child he loves, a poseser of charity

You ask me his name?  My reply:  a soul winner!
