Pilgrims of God
I was wandering the desert
Lost without hope for now I roam
Crushed beneath the pressure
Wanting a place I could call home
I was drowning in my sorrow
Up to my kneck in sin
Looking for somebody
Who I respect- a friend
I was desperate for a treasure
Never bought and can't be sold
But stuck inside a prison
And the devil had a hold
I couldn't see my way out
And I was just about to fold
Till then heard of a savior
Who purchased every soul
He promised life in heaven
I knew I could not say no
Many of us were called there
Only a few of us would go
I left behind the old life
And stepped into the light
The darkness wasnt happy
so it scuffled and tried to fight
I held onto the rugged cross
Grappled to it with all my might
Took a little bit of time
And the darkness left my sight
I passed up all the lost souls
I tried to grab them if I could
I talked about the gospel
As I knew a Christian should
I saw them as did Jesus
In the valley on a slope
Up top of God's mountain
I tossed down to them a rope
The flames of hell roared higher
Nearly devoured some to nought
I rejoiced to all the heavens
About the few of them I caught
The angels played a trumpet
A couple instruments with strings
I heard the choir bellow
Out a hymnal they did sing
See heaven is the treasure
The Holy Ghost bestow a ring
Some claimed to know all mysteries
yet still slow to know a thing
And didnt know the calling
So quickly fell from Grace
Dont buy into this life of sin
Nor after riches niether chase
Dont forfeit to hell your precious soul
For if so your life you waste
Just call out now to Jesus
Bow your head and seek his face
He loves you very much
This world is but a bitter taste
see Jesus is enough
He knows your every hurt....
And carries all your sorrow
Ask for His safety here and now
For you may not see tomorrow
Listen to the preachers words
Of life beyond the veil
Take heed to travel down this path
Forsake the broken trail
And you will live in glory of the Father
you should know
That Jesus has a plan for you
And your eternal soul
