REMEMBER CHRIST
Since storms will come and winds will blow
Since people die and conflicts grow
Since plans will fail and leaves turn brown
And friends will sometimes let you down
Remember who gives life and death
And loved us with his dying breath.
*
Since stocks will crash and chairmen lie
Since cancer kills and crime’s too high
Since greed lives on and gang wars kill
And marriages are failing still
Remember Christ with insults hurled
Who hung with thieves to save the world.
*
Since children starve and mothers grieve
Since soldiers hurt and teens conceive
Since some will cheat and some don’t care
And wars leave scars that all must bear
Remember Christ whose blood was shed
Who came to save us from the dead.
*
So don’t give up and don’t give in
Remember Christ who cleansed our sin
This world’s a sick and wretched place
So share God’s love and show God’s grace
Keep loving and forget the past
Since those in Christ are free at last.
By Paul Ray
