Turned Backs On The Savior
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
You turned your backs on The Savior.
The One who said,
He would come to save ya.
But with a faked faith,
To vacate and replace...
You heart now aches in disbelief,
That The Savior is real.
You...
Turned your backs on The Savior.
The One and only to pray who can save ya.
But you couldn't wait to keep your faith,
For that time your mind would find...
A healing done,
To leave your troubles behind.
You can't blame your loss of things on God.
To possess more than faith kept to sob.
You can not blame your weeping,
On a feeling of defeat.
When only you invited to satisfy a greed.
With a doing to believe,
This would please The Savior.
While you're left guaranteed,
Your faith faked to deceive...
Would deliver to you Blessings.
More than ever to receive.
Yet...
You had turned your backs on The Savior.
With a weeping to grieve desperately.
Over losing your things to vacate your faith.
You...
Turned away from The Savior.
The One who made it possible,
For miracles to come and allow them done.
But you alone made decisions on your own,
To make your life to live it even better.
With things.
Taken away by Mother Nature to bring,
You to your knees to plead to be saved!
Stop faking a faith to vacate.
With it hoping a returning back,
Momentarily...
That The Savior hadn't notice,
You had left to leave...
To feed your selfish need to greed.
