COEXISTENCE?
by Bill Kochman
02-12-2023
Ever wider grows the gap,
As the years pass us by,
Some folks embrace truth,
While others just the lie.
There is a mighty sifting,
The wheat from the tare,
Some choose only Jesus,
Others the prince of the air.
The darkness and the light,
There’s no common ground,
God’s Word we will uphold,
They don’t want us around.
Our flame is just too bright,
It blinds them in their eyes,
They say we are the villains,
Who they hate and despise.
Now just leave us all alone,
And let us live as we will,
All your Gospel preaching,
Can’t you see it’s overkill?
You claim to know the truth,
But we have ours as well,
So stop your condemnation,
Please no more talk of Hell.
Such is the tragic mindset,
Of those folks who are lost,
They will defend their sins,
Yes, regardless of the cost.
Yet we continue preaching,
As this world turns away,
The truth may yet get thru,
To wake them up some day.
