Tears fall from his mighty Face
As he looks at the world it's condition pure disgrace
People have no morals anymore
Don’t believe in a God, if they do his words they'd rather ignore.
Thousands of innocent men die each day,
Because their hearts are filled with hate
Crime is reaching to the worst state.
Broken families lots of tears,
Children deprived left to face sorrow and all their fears.
No one stays together anymore
Marriage vows have lost their meaning
What do they renew them for?
Just fighting the next week and worse than before.
Seems like hearts can never heal
Bitterness is held against others for years
Looking down upon us more than sorrow God does feel.
We have forgotten how to forgive,
Without this ability its hard to live.
To see his creation has come to its lowest such a disgrace,
From heavens beauty he looks upon us tears rolling down his face.
Thousands starving we can help but were just to greedy to share
Its because we'd rather put it in the back of our minds convienently forget
when we should care.
Diseases strike us left and right
We have forgotten to look to God in prayer each night.
Suicide has reached its hight
teenagers cutting themselves
thinking they are worthless because they cant live life right.
Drugs on every street
Thinking this makes their miserable lives complete.
Cigarettes and alcohol sold to a minor,
money seems finer.
God sees what is going on
To write it all down would take to long.
His righteous persecuted because they believe in his holy word.
Walking throughout lifes journey laughter from behind me is heard.
Just because I look different its ok for them to make fun,
Jesus made us equal as one.
Guess his words don’t mean as much to some.
They sure mean the world to me
What keeps me living you see.
The light within Jesus shines down upon this earth
We could never measure its worth.
Follow him today
All the darkness you ever new will slowly fade away.
