Silent Witness

We say that we are Christians and that we are walking in God's ways
but do we really walk in them every single day?
When we go to parties and people pressure us to drink
do we ever take that time to really stop and think?
The Lord is always watching everything we do
and when we tell people we are saved He knows if it is really true
we think it does not matter what we do when no one is around
but God is always standing there even if He does not make a sound
He walks with us through good times and carries us through bad
and when we let Him down He forgives us even if
what we did makes Him really sad
We tell our friends we love Him and that heaven is where we'll go
but if God asked us today would we really know?
We get down on our knees and pray to the lord above
and we preach to our friend about His everlasting love
So if we know all this why do we still forget He's standing there?
Why when we go out with our friends do we still not seem to care
when we stand before God on our judgment day
And He asks us all our sins will we know what to say?
Just remember when you go out the Lord is always standing there
He is our silent witness with whom our lives we share.

Cody,
This has to be my favorite one! I'm printing this one! I use those binders with the clear pockets on the outsides to put things in, this would be great to stick in there next year! Can't wait to read more of your poems! Talk to you later! Love Sarah P.

I want to let everyone know that Sarah P. and I went to school together last year. Sadly we were seperated by high school district boundries. Miss a lot Sarah.
