Don't Come Alone

The trumpet sounded, all were called
To meet before the Lamb,
And to Him went, both great and small
Before Him, all to stand

But going there, I was alone
Without a single friend,
I bowed down low before the throne
Prayed God I’d not offend

He looked at me, tears in his eyes
Asked where my friends all were.
I said, “You took me by surprise,
On earth they’re all still, Sir.

“If I had known You’d come so soon
I would have told them, Lord.
But later’s what I did presume
Their souls what I ignored.

“Oh, please, dear God, just let me go
This judgment do postpone,
I want to tell my friends this so
I’ll not come here alone.”

And yet I knew the time was up
I’d waited far too long,
For to my friends the doors were shut
And I had done them wrong

You see if I’d a second chance
I’d tell the whole wide world,
I’d plead until a friend recants
To Hell he’d not be hurled

But now you know, you still have time
Its use is what’s allowed,
And you can waste it, like I mine
Or meet God with a crowd.

 

Living in a boxed world

The walls are solid
I feel so cramped
There's no room to breathe
No way out

Stretching my arms
I try to help
I shout for someone
No one comes

How did I ever
Arrive in this world
Why did God make me
Trapped in a box

I know that I'm in
His plan He calls perfect
Maybe I just
Don't understand

The walls seem so solid
Not corregated like cardboard
I'm cramped and can't turn
Even around

I feel so hopeless
Like I've lived in vain
Emptiness and void
Thrown my life to the wind

God, I know
You're out there somewhere
I need you now
Help me to see

About Aussie

Aussie is a regular contributor to Mission FireFly.

I like writing, what can I say? It's not like I can just sit down anytime and do it, though. It's a mood thing. Somedays it comes and somedays it goes. I also like art (more on the modern side) and writing my own songs.
