If you dont do it who will?

You sit nice and comfy
Seminar after seminar
What a powerful word you say to yourself
As block upon block you are built

You
Turn up your nose at those lost at sea
Fattened in the world you see
Ignoring friends, Family
Neihbours and acquantances
Lost in heathenness
Some may have a form of godliness
But its a charade

Alcololism and premature death strike the youth
You say to your self its such a shame gone to soon
Premature pregnancies and abortions plague the neighborhood
You say to yourself she should have kept her legs closed
Yet you
Close the door of the word
Anger bitterness and regret color homes
You sit in church and pretend its not there

But if you dont do it
How will they hear
When you have been given
Songs of life
Words of worth
Feet bearing good news
Who will then dare to bring them home
Search for every sheep and bring healing and hope?

Unless you care
Unless you try
Unless you persist
There will be no songs of gladness
My sheep will be lost
Because sons lost their voice
