ARE YOU STILL DEAD?

ARE YOU STILL DEAD

Are you still dead?
What are you waiting for
A text from Jesus
Or something even more?

Hello!?!
Ears full of need
Dilated and glazed
The blind made to see

Now here’s a shock
Your breath is not your own
Take with thanksgiving
New flesh on dusty bone

The jump start of mercy
Comes in the right now
If you roll over in decay
Your knee will someday bow

Better choice here
Later is too late
Aren’t you ready for Jesus
He’ll set you a plate
