Just a Poem

As the days go by, I sit here and ponder
My life I question, in awesome wonder

Why am I here on this planet called earth?
I've been living here, since the day of my birth

The roads I took, were long and rough
Always changing and made me tough

My childhood days are dead and gone
I still don't feel like I belong

I feel like life has passed me by
It won't be long before I die

What is the reason for living this life?
With all its turmoil and all its strife

Lots of questions and answers none
Not much joy and not much fun

So many hurting, besides myself
Putting our problems up on a shelf

Not dealing with issues that came from the past
With out dealing with them, they'll last and last

Where does one start? To manage his ways
After living in sin for so many days

Is there hope for a sinner, who wants to change?
Who wants a new life and to rearrange

I've heard of this God who had only one Son
Who came from a virgin mother, He was her first one

He came to earth to forgive us for our sin
He died on the cross, so that we all could win

How do you find this forgiving Son?
Is He the Messiah talked about by every one?

Churches are full but is anyone happy?
Or are they still hurting, avoiding their Pappy

If there is a God and He sent his one Son
Where is He now, his Son number one?

Is He here in Grande Prairie? If He is I can't say
Cause I keep living the same old way

So many years have passed so fast
What am I waiting for, a nuclear blast?

Why is it so hard to get on my knees?
And why do I keep doing what ever I please?

When will I surrender and give Him my life?
Be good to my children and love my wife

I know the game and I know it too well
If I don't change soon I'll be going to hell

God's not a lamp that you rub for a wish
Even though he puts money inside a fish

One day I will realize, I can't do it on my own
I need God almighty, and stop this roam

One day I'm up and the next day I'm down
I act like a man and the next day a clown

Dear Lord Jesus please come into my life
Take away my anger and all of my strife

I'm reaching out to the heavens above
I need you dear Jesus, I do need your love

Please take me dear Father and make me a man
I'm tired of living inside a garbage can

Forgive me my Daddy for all of my sin
I repent of my past so that I can win

To be the man that you want me to be
Thank you Jesus for setting me free
