Return


Return

Gathering,
A great darkness
A world clothed in chaos
Spinning to regress
Going backwards
Because
It does spurn
A Savior's love
& suffering

A once bright nation
Founded upon
Its Christ's sacrifice
Now once, twice,
Perhaps even thrice
Rejects His name
More & more
From its shore to shore
Oh, return to us
Please once more!

We can do better
Help us to cling to
Each word,
Each letter
Within Your precious book
For we know
It is within our hands
Our choice
To reject
Or

To take our stand
Upon Your words
Realizing at last
It is only
Your strength
Your power
Lord Jesus
That holds together
Undergirds
Everything

So, forgive us we pray
May we never again stray
So far away as we seem
To have done in this
Current time, this day
