“Everyone Leaves”

“Everyone Leaves”

cji
6/12/11

Lest we pretend to be
innocent and naive
in each person’s life
at some point in time
there’s a short line
when found in strife
foolishness to believe
and blindness to see;

At some point ahead
everyone leaves away
gone from one’s sight
left without a feeling
as shadows stealing
into the darkest night
none found to stay
our moment of dread;

Even for the Savior too
found alone on a cross
that moment left without
to His Father to shout
of this tremendous loss
are we more to view?

Each Sabbath Day know
when we’re found alone
wondering where to turn
shedding all our coldness
seeking truth in boldness
this we’ve got to learn
the Savior for us did atone
we in wisdom then grow!
