Blindness

By Jim Perry
Kissimmee, Florida

 

The world can’t see the forest for the trees

    They bend their minds instead of their knees

It’s a case of the blind leading the blind

    One doesn’t care and the other doesn’t mind

They can’t see salvation for the soul

    Even after they’ve been told and told and told

You would think they all have cataracts

    The way they interpret the book of Acts


They can see this whole world is getting corrupt

    Yet they look for answers everywhere but up

They can’t see that God is a God of wrath

    But it will be clear in the aftermath


They can’t see that Jesus is coming soon

    But when he does, they’ll sing a different tune

They can’t see there’s coming a judgment time

    But it will be too late for them to whine


They can’t see there is a Lake of Fire

    They don’t even bother to inquire

They can’t see there is coming a Y2K

    They still continue to run and play


They can’t see there’s soon coming an anti-christ

    To set up a throne to play cat and mice

They can‘t see baptism in Jesus’ Name

    They think they’re saved just the same


They can’t see the need for the Holy Ghost

    But in themselves they can surely boast

They can’t see Post-Tribulation

    What are they afraid of, more dedication?
