I Used To Tell Others About Jesus!

I used to tell others of Jesus,

 as a young man...

Witnessing for Christ,

throughout the land!

I told others of a time to repent...

I loved to talk about Jesus,

  wherever I went!

As the years went by,

And I grew old.

The things of God, I no longer told.

A coldness in my life, began to brew.

Even God’s word… I no longer knew.

I only talked about God to

 people in the church.

In my heart, was a hunger

 for a new search.

A search to return to Jesus! My lost love!

I fell on my knees! And cried to God above.

 I began to confess, to God, everything!

A new love for him I knew he would bring.

I began to feel his love come all over me.

The chains were now gone! I was set free!

If a coldness for Jesus dwells in you.

Remember his love is faithful and true!

Please come to Jesus!

And be cleansed within!

And experience the joy of being born again!
