I need the perfect words
Words that he will hear
And know they're straight from You
I don't know what to say
I only know it hurts
To see my only friend
Slowly fade away
So maybe this time
I'll speak the words of life
With Your fire in my eyes
But that all familliar fear
Is tearing at my words
What am i so afraid of?
Cause here i go again
Talking 'bout the rain
And mulling over things
That don't live past today
As i ditch around the truth
Time is not his friend
This might be my last chance to tell him that You love him
Cause here i go again
Lord, Your loving soul
You gave Your only Son
If people just believed
He would never die
How then will he know
What he has never heard?
Lord, he has never seen
Mirrored in my life
So maybe this time
I'll speak the words of life
With Your fire in my eyes
But that all familliar fear
Is tearing at my words
What am i so afraid of?
Cause here i go again
Talking 'bout the rain
And mulling over things
That don't live past today
As i ditch around the truth
Time is not his friend
This might be my last chance to tell him that You love him
Cause here i go again

Well i guess that most christians today face a common fear whilst witnessing and telling pagans the gospel-the fear of being dejected or made fun of. Strangely i have never experienced this fear in my life- although i am not that sucessful in bringing people to know Christ-and i don't know why either.
Maybe because i need a miracle, i don't have the before and after optic nerves or stuff like that. I have been very fortunate all my life and was born and bred in a Christian family my whole life. It may be a good and bad thing.
The good thing is that i think i have a more intensive knowledge of the bible than some my age as a result of my upbringing. Dicussions about spirituality and religion have become quite the norm. Children with non-christian parents might sometimes feel akward when touching on such subjects.
The bad thing is the witness part. I don't really have a before and after the introduction of Christ, so it is hard to tell people of my personal journey with Christ.
Well, i have to go now so,
Until next time!
