Sit, My Friend

May 19, 2013

Hi my friend, I know you are a stranger
But I have to warn you; you’re soul’s in danger
You ask the questions how and why
And the answers are do or die

“Die?” You ask “I don’t want to.”
“To die is death, never to be able to do”
You’re right in a way, but there is another
It’s not in what you do, my sisters and brothers

Brothers and Sisters, I encourage you
Seek the Light, whatever you do.
The Light has a name, and Jesus is it
Please, don’t leave – sit

Sit, and please listen to one more thing
It may open your ears or make them ring
He is the way, the truth, and the life – yes, the light
He brings growth and renewel to where there was once blight.

For Love

Hello little stranger
You’re the newest infant in town
They laid You in a manger

A king put you in danger
Shepherds were called into town
Hello, little stranger

You are the ultimate arranger
Yet from your throne to earth, you came down
They laid You in a manger

They thought it wasn’t anything major
Nothing special from this babe, so round
Hello, little stranger

But you are the great rearranger
You turn things upside down
They laid You in a manger

Angels were there; it couldn’t have been plainer
That the King of Kings, for love had shed His crown
Hello, little stranger
They laid You in a manger
