Leaving the Light On


John 3:17-21

For God sent not His Son for to judge here,
Rather to be saved and not to induce fear;
He that believes in Him shall not be judged,
Non-believers have a life that is smudged;
Disbelief on the only begotten Son of God,
In saving the sinners who are badly flawed;
With the judgment that the light has come,
With a choice for evil darkness for some;
And others can choose the truth and light,
Being looked upon with favor as a delight;
All that does evil the darkness they love,
Hating the light and the source thereof;
He that loves the light let this decree,
Molded by God for in the truth to see;
Those who love the light love the Lord,
For they know why the blood was poured,
While others, who are still in disbelief,
Are always filled with sorrow and grief;
With no real understanding of eternal life,
Blinded by darkness in not ending strife,
