My Agony

I hold a light

A light no one sees

Though I try with all my might

I tell them of His saving grace

And of the freedom I found

With one look upon His face

My heart squeezes painfully, crying out for them to see

Though I know they wish for me to just let it be

But I know of the flames that will consume their souls

If only they'd see, see with their hearts, the light that will save them from scorching coals

I see a way, a way of everlasting life

But they don't see it and ask me to stop causing so much strife

This gut wrenching agony makes me ill

But I know a One that says be still

Be free, they say, don't let the devil be your bane

But living a life without Him would only cause me pain
