The Falling Away

We have all sinned and fallen short of God's grace.
Sin has separated us from His glorious face
Our lusts and desires cause Him such pain
on the cross he died and for us was slain

The hearts of His children have gone astray.
The children He loves have turned away.
Misled, deceived, have they really believed
Call back the lost sheep they must be retrieved

The Son of God did not die in vain
He gave us white garments without any stain
So why are they leaving without understanding
Who are they worshiping who is their king

Have they been testing the spirits as it says in the Word
Chasing, signs, and wonders away they have been lured
Every Spirit that says that Jesus is not God in the Flesh
will steal the hearts of men they won't need nets of mesh

Run Back, Run Back to His forgiving ,loving arms
Leave the world with all of it's temptations and charms
Return to the Holy One of Israel through His risen Son
Re turn to the work that must be done.
