Professional Christians



My, how we sing and dance and shout
it's hard to find anyone with as much clout
I've been a Christan all my life they say
I've walked for God all my days

But something seems as if to cloud
their testimony, coming so loud
they know when to raise their hands
when to shout and say "Amen"

They automatically get dressed
for church by which they're blessed
to miss a service would throw them into distress
but, to God they forgot to confess

Their entire life is really quite surreal
not really knowing the difference between
that which is truly and actually real
their souls being quite empty and lean

Oh, yes, but they go to church!
but their private lives don't research!!
how often do God's power they really feel?
balancing the visible lives, keeping even keel

When last under His power they shook?
or do they only remember how it used to be?
when last did their private sin they forsook?
keeping the outside clean for all to see

It all comes back to the moment of death
the time comes for all to draw their last breath
what will your answer be to Him that knows all
"a faithful and true saint" will He then call?

Or will to you sadly shake His head
the fear and reality of hell now your stead
have you been His faithful liaison?
or merely existed in state of confusion?

Knowing every thing a real Christian should be
but living secretly under false decree
totally in secret seclusion
portraying deliberate obtuse allusion

Many today merely live by habit
little more than a robed abbot
portrayed holy by deadly illusion
in Gods' eyes, merely a Professional Christian
