Why oh why do you continue to wander?
Blind and empty of truth,
Stop! For it is your life you squander!
Life that's worth the living,
Of sin you are growing fonder and fonder...
I lie awake thinking and praying for you,
Aching tears fill my eyes,
For I love you my friend, I really do,
The heart within me breaks,
With your every sin, your scorn of what is true.
I cannot save you, for only God can save,
Yet you must be willing,
My dear friend for you He readily gave,
His precious blood and life,
Yet you shun Him, running by choice towards the grave...
