A Rusty Old Car

For He saw we were broken
Like the rusty old shell
But in love He redeemed
From the scrapyard of hell.

We place greatest value
On money, possessions
Appearance and name
It’s become an obsession.

For we face, moral collapse
Such cultural confusion
Great division, deception
Must return, to God’s solution.

With our universe, so vast
Such complexity, of all
So balanced, maintained
Before God, we must fall.

Though our culture condones
Approves of deception
Know God, our Creator
Expects truth, no exception.

Be so blessed, if obeying
But so cursed, if rebelling
Yes, God warned His people
Lest His Word, start betraying.

Yet the lives of those lost
Was not in vain
With the rebirth of Israel
God’s will, He’ll attain.

Be repentant, not rebellious
Obedient, His Spirit-filled
Submitted, not stubborn
Seek God, not self-willed.

But Jesus, the Good Shepherd
Every promise, does keep
Full of mercy and grace
Ever seeks out, lost sheep.

And know God, will avenge
All, the wicked and evil
Blessing His saints
Rewarding His people.
