Looking Through the Window

[Christsfreeservant]

Now I am looking through the window
In the corner of my room.
I see people walking here and there
Seemingly without a care.

I wonder, “Do they truly know Him?
Do they think of Him at all?
Do they think of what He’s done for them?
Have they given Him a call?

“Do they wonder if He’s listening
To the words they choose to say?
Do they think on how they live their lives?
Do they stop, and to Him pray?

“Now is He barely even mentioned
When they’re talking to their friends?
Or is He given not a thought at all,
For on Him they not depend?

“Or is there just a vague connection
With the man who gave His life,
who on that cruel cross He suffered,
To set us free from sin and strife?”

So, I now pray for them in earnest,
That they come to know Him well,
So that their sins will be forgiven,
And forever with Him dwell,

So that they walk now with Him daily,
In obedience to Him,
And that they serve Him as their only
King of kings, who lives in heav’n.
