Do you have a loved one who doesn’t know The Lord? <br />Friend it isn’t any fun picturing them in Hell forevermore. <br />The end for all is very real, my friend, make no mistake. <br />Even with a strong appeal, The Lord they could forsake. <br /> <br />However Jesus died for all, even those who don’t believe, <br />And ever since the fall, Satan’s been working to deceive. <br />But Christ will not forsake you, once He lives in your heart. <br />Your former life He knew, but from you Christ won’t depart. <br /> <br />He cleanses you at the cross washing away all guilty stain, <br />Although you once were lost, Jesus’ death is now your gain. <br />But some family my friend, still will chose the opposite way, <br />And if left alone, in the end, there’s an eternal price to pay. <br /> <br />You live with a heavy heart, as you shared The Only Way, <br />For they simply want no part no matter what you do or say. <br />You may not truly understand why they don’t seem to care. <br />So lift up with holy hands their name to God in quiet prayer. <br /> <br />In Heaven if you don’t see a loved one waiting for you there, <br />Friend I ask of you please don’t think that God doesn’t care. <br />For Christ will wipe away for you every tear from your eyes, <br />For it was for loved ones too, that upon that cross He died. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©07/2004)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/living-with-a-heavy-heart/
