As a Young Boy I Told Others of Jesus
I once loved to tell others of Jesus
as a young boy.
My heart was filled with
love, prayer and joy.
Talking about Jesus, I had spent.
I loved to talk about him,
everywhere I went.
As the years went by,
I started growing old.
The things of God, I had no longer told.
A coldness in my heart began to brew.
Even God’s word-I no longer knew.
I only talked about God to
people in the church.
But in my heart was a hunger for a new search.
A search to return to Jesus-my long lost love.
I fell on my knees and cried to God above.
As I began to confess to God everything.
A newness to my life I knew he would bring.
I began to feel his love come all over me.
The chains were now gone-I was set free!
If a coldness for Jesus dwells in you.
Remember his love is steadfast and true!
Return to him to cleanse you within,
And experience the joy of being born again!
