When I Needed Someone You Weren'T There
When I Needed Someone… You Weren’t There!
When I needed someone the most.
You wouldn’t listen.
You said; “There’s too many things in life
I don’t want to be missin.’”
When I knocked on your door.
And asked you to pray…
You said; “don’t bother me!” “Just go away!”
When I was going through a hard time.
I called your home.
You really got upset. And hung up the phone!
When I was at a very low point
of much discouragement.
Not once… Did you offer any
kind of encouragement!
I’ve thought about everything that has been said.
At times, I wonder if I “was better off dead.”
It’s almost like you wish “I wasn’t there at all.”
You never talk to me. Or give a call.
Should I attempt to call on the same
Jesus, you claim to know?
Would he listen to me…
Or simply tell me to GO???
If I make an attempt to call on his name…
Would he get upset like you? And complain?
What do you suggest that I do?
Especially that I don’t really have
anyone else to turn to…
Will Jesus turn his back on me… The way you did?
Without any hope or meaning… I have no reason to live.
I think I’m going to take the time,
and ask Jesus to come in…
Perhaps this is the way that
I can really find a FRIEND!
