The Lost

THE LOST

I'm sorry for what you're feeling

I'm sorry for your pain

But I introduced myself to them

Though they wouldn't call my name

I'm sorry for your sorrow

I'm sorry for who you lost

But they too had a chance to know me

But they wouldn't count the cost

You see it's not my desire

That any of you should fall

Away from my grace & mercy

That's why I gave it all

The burden that they were bearing

Had already been bore before

I gave them the key they needed

To simply unlock the door

But not all have ears to hear

Not all have eyes to see

Some go through their whole life

Without ever getting free

It wasn't your job to "save them"

Though you're saddened that they're gone

But find strength in the promise you've chosen

& on the road to righteousness carry on.
