If I could only believe!

lyrics by: Roxanne Dubarry
Written on Jun 16, 2016

If only I could believe!
I would not become deceived!
I would not be afraid.
I wish I could believe in him, today!

I have heard all of the arguments.
Still, my heart is far from content.
Doubts seem to bother me day after day.
With out Jesus Christ in my life,
I remain afraid!

The holy spirit has not entered into my heart.
My life has not experienced a brand new start.
Why does my heart remain locked behind closed doors!
What sorrow my heart has in store!

What is standing in my way?
Why don't I ask Jesus Christ
into my heart without further delay!
Standing on the promises of God.
I need no longer be tossed to and froe.
With nowhere else to go!

Why do I not recognize, Satan is my foe!
The prince of darkness does not want me
to come.  Only to believe in God's only
begotten Son!  He would bide me
welcome!  I could enter into the family
of God!

Why don't I accept his free offer of salvation today!
My doubts and my fears would pass away!
Perfect love and serenity would enter into
my heart without delay!  I need to fall
on my knees and pray!

Love in Christ Jesus!

Why waste the time of day in wishful thinking? Why spin cobwebs in the air? Why wish upon a star, when no one hears? Many years I have spent in wishful thinking. Day dreaming most of my life away. Wasting away the years, Ign... Read more

Jesus Christ is my major source of inspiration, it is quite obvious to me. Without his help, I would possess no talent for composing any of my inspirational Christian poetry. He provides the words to say. He lightens my heavy ... Read more
