They are Thrilled!

An Original Work / October 18, 2021

Tardy, tardy, not on time

Lazy, lazy, it’s a crime

Truthful, truthful, rein them in

Teach them: “Don’t give in to sin”

All their idols in a row

They put on a fancy show

Crowds are coming, lusts fulfilled

Cheap grace gospel – they are thrilled

Fancy parties, dinner dates

But for Jesus, they are late

Entertainment – where it’s at

Vacillating this or that

Bible now they barely know

Quote from movies, quote from shows

Actors, actors, know them all

But on Jesus barely call

Politicians, that’s their gig

They’re their saviors, who they dig

Follow them where’er they lead

Feel that somehow them they need

Preachers tell them many jokes

Eat their chips and drink their cokes

Lots of parties, games galore

While their preachers they adore

Liars, liars all around

Preachers now turned into clowns

Music now is chic and hip

Sermons from a flip of stick

Gospel altered, flesh to please

No more getting on their knees

Don’t obey Him – do their thing

Sins to Jesus they not bring

“Leave your idols, pray to God

Leave your sins, give up your bod

Jesus cleanse you from your sins

Let His Spirit now come in

“Follow Jesus where He leads

Obey Him in all your deeds

Daily die with Him to sin

Live for Jesus, walk in Him”
