They've Never Heard of Jesus

The steeples rise up to the skies all across the land,

While lovely churches grace each town, it's hard to understand

Why Christ is still the Savior that so many never meet;

People halfway 'round the world, right across the street.

 

They've never heard of Jesus, they never call His name.

And without His great love and hope in their lives,

Their worlds will go on unchanged.

And they need Him so. We all need Him so.

They've never heard of Jesus , you and I must let them know.

 

Their eyes look out each morning on another day:

Their faces speak of heartache that their words might never say.

From busy city sidewalks to strange and distant shores.

How they need someone to tell them just what living's really for.

 

They've never heard of Jesus, they never call His name.

And without His great love and hope in their lives,

Their worlds will go on unchanged.

And they need Him so. We all need Him so.

They've never heard of Jesus , you and I must let them know.

This  song  has become particularly precious to me since I heard it in recent weeks. I have known the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour for the past 28 years, and to have this wonderful relationship with Him as my Lord is something that I cherish the most, more than any thing that riches can buy. He is the focus of my life, my reason for living, and He is my constant  joy and  comfort through daily trials. 

If you have something so wonderful and precious in your life, wouldn't you want to share it with everyone , and most of all, with those who are closest to you? I guess that is why I talk about what God has done for me all the time, because having God's love in my life  really means everything to me. He loved me enough to die for me, in my place, for my sins. How much more wonderful can love be than this love that God has extended to me?

I need God so much in my life , and I am so thankful to Him that He loves me.  

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:16
