A POETIC DEDICATION TO ALL MISSIONARIES.
Truth Behind My Mask
Blue eyes on my face is what you see.
But what's behind them deep within me?
You think I'm all right ,no sadness or pain...
Thoughts are well hidden inside my brain.
I show you a smile, you return one back.
My human mask hides what is dark and black.
Blue eyes ,brown hair and my smile, now weak.
A tear just escaped rolling down my cheek.
Will you get close enough that I'll let you in ?
As my mind sees things that shouldn't have been?
My smile now fades as you hold my hand .
What's under my mask that you don't understand...
I will share with you what I now must tell.
Many tears are flowing and more starting to swell.
Around the world, people preach The Good News.
Unaware of the moments ,their own lives they will lose.
My heart is so broken and torn for all whom have died.
For teaching of Lord Jesus ,for our sins-crucified.
Pray for all Missionaries out there this day.
Oh Lord ,please lift them up and out of harms way!
Faithful believers keep praying together.
We long for the time that God's Peace is forever.
They have just spoke to Jesus in their last gentle breath.
A bittersweet victory for those nearing death.
To hurt God's children is like a knife in my chest.
Lord Jesus shall hold them and give them their rest.
Eternal life is theirs as they meet Christ our King.
Heaven's Gates stand open and the Angels shall sing.
