Salvation
By Todd A. Smith
Where did it all go wrong?
A world with so much promise
Has turned into a world headed for destruction.
It seems people are more interested in rights
Than in doing what is right.
Where did it all go wrong?
Have we all forgotten
That the blueprint of life
Resonates in Christ’s holy word?
Oh, father forgive us
For we know not what we do
We take prayer out of schools
And wonder why morals have been replaced by guns
We forget what the purpose of marriage is
And wonder what the purpose of pestilence is
We forget that violence should be avoided
And vengeance is yours
But are surprised when vengeance
Is taken out against our
Brothers and sisters overseas
Where did it all go wrong?
Father forgive us for our disobedience
Forgive us for our religious selfishness
We ask for your salvation
Not only for certain individuals
But salvation for the entire world
Amen.
