Watching the World Go By

We sit and watch as the world goes by,

And accept the loss of another day.

We turn to God and ask him “Why?”

But we’re the ones who choose to live this way.

We could reach the stars if we’d only try.

But we don’t take the opportunity

To listen to Him and hear His plan.

He has one, you know, for you and me.

Perhaps some day we’ll learn His way,

And listen to His loving voice.

We’ll take His hand and walk with Him,

But we must make that choice.

God doesn’t push, he doesn’t demand,

He waits to envelop us with His love.

Then offers us the greatest gifts,

Rewards from His altar far above.

So let us rise and watch no more

As the world simply goes on by.

Let’s take the love He offers us,

And let Him teach us how to fly.

Amen
