Return Now To God Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Your walk with Christ feels awfully long
You need more breath to sing your song
Your hands hang limp down at your side
Can’t count the times each day you’ve cried

Visits to church are growing less
Your empty life’s so full of stress
The light received has grown so dim
Just like the love you felt for Him

You feel alone no friend in sight
Your life’s so dark without God’s Light
Your troubled heart is full of pain
You need God’s Son to come again

Down on your knees you’ll beat the foe
With humble heart say God hello
The words will come when once you kneel
So tell the Lord just how you feel

Have trust in God suffer no loss
No-more is Jesus on the cross
As Christ foretold again He’d rise
He’ll vanquish sin and open eyes

Allow God’s Spirit come to you
His Holy Flame will make you new
You thought He’d come to you before
Yet still He’s knocking at your door

God’s truth can now be yours and mine
Salvation’s more than bread and wine
God’s Holy Ghost who comes from high
Is ours to help the lost who die

Return; through Jesus’ blood and might
Within His strength you’ll win the fight
The Flame once felt will God restore
With love that leads through Heaven’s door.
