I turned on the TV to watch a show.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It was the same old shoot em up and rodeo.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Another hurricane, another tornado.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Maybe I should listen to the radio.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Everywhere the horrible news kept pouring in.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a terrible place drowning in sin.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I want a better life for you and me.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

We must escape so we can be free.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But, there is very little we can do.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Because you can never run away from you.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

To do that you need a new heart.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Be born again with a new start.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

There is only one known way it can be done.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Surrender yourself to the heavenly One.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Everything then will fall into place.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It won’t get rid of the violence and hate.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But, it will give you all you need.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

So you can make it through feeling freed.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You will give it all to Him.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

He will carry you then.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You will know you’re future is assured.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You’re going home. He gave you His word.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
