Those Words

When I was young, sitting in church,
I'd hear the preacher say
"Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
is coming back some day"

"Will you be ready when he comes
to take Gods children home ?"
This would really get to me
I felt so all alone.

I did not want to hear those words
they scared me oh so bad.
I didn't want the world to end
it made me really sad.

To Think that everyone I knew
would die and we'd be gone.
I didn't understand at all
the Words" we're going home"

Well now I'm grown and understand
the meaning  oh so clear
But still those words they make me sad
for some I love so dear.

If only they would ask the Lord
to come and save their soul,
then they can join us in that time
when Jesus takes us home.

I wish that they could really see ,
the time is drawing near.
Then we can feel the joy we should,
When again those words we hear.
