Today Is The Day, Friend Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Ngayon Ang Araw, Kaibigan!

Kailan ba, Kaibigan, ang araw ng kaligtasan?
Ito ba'y isang araw na maaaring ipagpaliban?
Tulad ng pagdating ng oras ng Kamatayan,
Pwede bang sabihing, sa ibang araw na lang?

Ang ating kawalang hanggan ay narito,
Ano mang oras tayo ay nasa langit o impiyerno.
Bukas ay hindi atin, ang buhay ay walang seguro-
Ngayon lang ang araw na magtiwala kay Jesus Cristo!

Ang sabi ng Diyos - 'Ako'y naririto. Kumakatok sa iyong puso.
Kung Ako'y papapasukin, sa iyo mananahan, at tayo'y magsasalo
Magpahanggang kailan pa man'

Kaya't kung ito ang araw na iyong naririnig
Ang katok sa iyong puso at ang Kanyang tinig-
Ito ang araw, Kapatid, dapat sabihin sa bibig
'Jesus, Ikaw ang aking Panginoon, na sa aki'y umibig! '

Translation:

Today Is The Day, Friend!

Just when, dear friend, is the day of Salvation?
Is it a day we can put off with simple cancellation?
Is it a day we can postpone like the coming of Death,
And can we say 'some other day' we're not ready yet?

Our whole eternity is hinged on this Day -
Any hour could bring us Heaven and Hell today.
Tomorrow is not ours, life gives no guarantee-
Now is the only day to trust in Christ for eternity!

His Word said 'Here I am. I stand at the door
And knock - If anyone hears My voice and opens the door,
I will come in and eat with him and he with Me.'

So if Today you hear Him and in your heart He's knocking-
You need to make the choice and respond to His calling.
This is the one day you need to make that decision
Speak and say 'Jesus You are My LORD, my Salvation! '
