When Desolation, thereof is near...
Men’s hearts will then, fail them for fear!
Of sound doctrine, they will not hear...
For that they will, have itching ears!
Many in The End, will scoff and jeer...
‘Cause they would not, of GOD revere!

Compassion for, their lost souls dear...
We pray with, strong crying and tears!
But with disdain, they only leer...
And look upon, as if it’s queer!
Soon the LORD JESUS, will appear...
Much regret, when Left Behind here!

The life of a “Christian,” you have portrayed...
But found wanting, when in the balance weighed!
From sinful pleasures, you have not forbade...
And from God’s Holy Writ, you have been swayed!
You left the ninety-nine, and now are strayed...
Just look upon the mess, that you have made!

Do you think all is well, ‘cause once you prayed?
Or was it all in vain, the price Christ paid?
Is it solely for you, Rapture delayed...
When Fullness of Gentiles, is then stayed?
Here is the message, the Lord has conveyed...
Church you attend, but a “Christian” you’ve played!

(Portrait of a Hypocrite)

In this world’s darkness, they did blend...
And of God chose not, to defend!
Seeking the new and, latest trend...
They’re tossed on every, doctrine’s wind!
A strong delusion, shall He send...
Of Christ’s rejection, in the end!

Therefore the LORD will, one day rend...
Evil within for, so to mend!
But eternity, shall depend...
If Heaven or Hell, we shall spend!
God’s commandments shall, never bend...
For Christ’s atonement, made amends!

They that have ears to hear, let them hear...
The coming of the LORD, draweth near!
Work out your own, Salvation with fear...
Prepare thine heart, and get into gear!
Walk uprightly; from temptations, veer...
And don’t allow, your conscience to sear!
At the trumpet sound, it shall be clear...
Those who were ready, will shout and cheer!
Face to face, with our Father so dear...
This will be, the happiest New Year!

Can it be, that dreams can come true?
If so LORD, please let me pursue!
The Senior Olympics! Who knew?
This open door, seems way past due!
Many have thought, that I was through...
But passion for it, only grew!
Know this, I cannot undo...
I’ve bought a ball, and shoes, brand new!

Dumb with silence, I held my peace...
But anger within, did increase!
The facts I knew, only a piece...
Thus my angst, did never decrease!
And ‘cause I wasn’t, trusting the Lord...
My prayers even, began to cease!
