Whilst down life’s corridors we tread
To classrooms long since gone
We see the rich the famous dead
Who lived without God’s Son
We see their misty clouded eyes
We see each prison cell
No thought of God or paradise
No thought of death and hell
Tightly confined in self made jails
Unknown God’s Truth & Light
Behind the devil’s masks and veils
Behind their walls of night
We see through darkness, shrouded minds
Their lustful thirst for gold
We see the chains, which Satan binds
We see their spirits cold
Where tender hearts should only beat
Where tongues to God should cry
But tears and pain show man’s defeat
Whilst locked in sin they die
But God can see man’s loathsome state
He sees the heavy chains
He sees the day is growing late
And how the devil reigns
God also sees the heart of pride
He sees where man should go
He sees His Son with arms held wide
But no one wants to know
God also sees the eyes that see!
The ears that truth can hear
And these He sends the world to free
And show His name to fear…Michael P. Johnson.
