A poem saying good bye to sin! Putting Sin to death.
Farewell old friend
Farewell to you
I no longer hunger for who you are
Or thirst for the things you do
I searched through a library of 66 books And one of it’s features
Said through a man named Christ Jesus
I am a new creature
Farewell old friend
Farewell to you
Cant say you will be missed
See its kind of like this
At first I cried when you died
Then I realized, with you gone
I no longer have wants to fornicate or lie
I no longer feel the need to have envy towards or gossip about others
My urges for drugs and drinking will soon be laying with you 6ft under
So farewell old friend
Farewell to you
You’ve been replaced
See there are 4 books about my new friend
They say he died too but from the dead he was raised
Another one says when you were alive I was your slave
But I called a name, to my rescue he came and instantly I was saved
Saved from pain, depression, sickness, loneliness, and death
Now my situations run a little smoother
Life is a little better now that you’ve taken your last breath
Farewell old friend
Don’t you remember way back when
Those things we did, and to so and so those things we said
I didn’t listen to others when the said from you they fled
But now that you’re dead, I finally feel like I can breathe again
And it’s all because of my new friend
Where the scripture says
The nails went through his feet and hands and his blood was shed
So now you’re dead cause by his father he was brought to life again
So on this day to you I say, goodbye…..farewell…..old…..friend
This thing we had has come to an end
Why???
Because I know who Jesus is
And I confessed it with my mouth and believed it with my heart
So he did away with my sins
Touched my life gave me reason to live
I will say it one more time but you’re not coming back so I won’t say it again
Goodbye
Farewell
Old….friend!!!!
