The Light

Folder: 
Christian

Listen to me, I have the Truth

I’m righteous, in His eyes

I bear from Him, the Spirit’s Fruit

I can not compromise



Follow me, I hold The Light

And at times I know it’s dim

It never dies in the darkness of night

If you follow, I’ll lead you to Him



Look at me, I’m not blemish-free

I’ve got scars just like you, too

I hurt, I cry, I do wrong daily

Yes, I sin, even Christians do!



I do not claim to be better than you

My goodness is a filthy rag

I’m a Christian, but I’ve turned away too

Sometimes to get to church, I have to be dragged



But my light never goes out

Sometimes it’s so dim you can not see it

In the darkness sometimes I stumble about

Until I realize the path has always been lit



Do as I say, not as I do

I will let you down

Listen to me when I tell you the truth

For, there’s no other truth around










Author's Notes/Comments: 

Every Christian holds The Light. Sometimes it shines brightly, and sometimes it fades, but it NEVER goes out!!
