Should We Neglect the Cause

I know that it has been a very long time since I last posted, but the truth is I really never know what to post about. My favorite types of posts are those with my favorite songs. So here is another one of my favorites.

Should We Neglect the Cause
Verse 1
When Jesus journeyed here
He traveled far and near
With one main goal, to seek and save the lost
Though His followers condemned Him so
When to a sinner He would go
Still He pressed on this message to bestow
Chorus:
Should we neglect the cause
Should we forget the lost
And fail to point the sinner to cross
The will our labor be in vain
If we deny Jesus' name
To a world dying in their shame
Should we neglect the cause
Verse 2:
Look now unto the field
It has much fruit to yield
Sad to say the laborers are few
Too busy seeking wealth and fame
For worldly good and selfish gain
Not knowing they will never be the same
Chorus:
Should we neglect the cause
Should we forget the lost
And fail to point the sinner to the cross
Then will our labor be in vain
If we deny Jesus' name
To a world dying in their shame
Should we neglect the cause
Bridge:
One by one they go
People dying everywhere
Who will never know
That Jesus really cares
I really like this song. The Lord has been really working in my heart lately about the subject of being more of a witness. Too often I spend time doing things that are not going to matter in the end. They may be things that there is nothing wrong with, but I could be using my time more wisely. Wealth and fame are going to be worth nothing when I look back on what I have done with my life. How much I did for the Lord is what will really matter.

  1. I couldn't agree more. For me the fear of witnessing is almost crippling at times. So nice to know I'm not the only Christian who struggles with this one. Keep pressing on!
