“Betrayed!”

(by D.J. Higgins)
Friend, I stand in judgment now
And feel that you’re to blame somehow.
On earth, I waited with you day by day,
And never did you point the way.
You knew the Lord in truth and glory
But never did you tell His story,
My knowledge then was very dim,
You could have led me safe to Him.
Yes, I knew He’d made the earth,
But knew not of that second birth.
And now I stand this day condemned,
Because you failed to mention Him.
You taught me many things that’s true.
I called you “friend” and trusted you.
I learn, now that it’s too late,
You could have kept me from this fate.
We walked by day and talked by night,
And yet you showed me not the Light.
You let me live, and love, and die,
And knew I’d never live on high.
Yes, I called you “friend” in life,
And trusted you in joy and strife.
And yet, on coming to this end,
I cannot, now call you “my friend.”

Brethren, are we truly being a “friend” to those who do not know the Lord?
[See: II Timothy 2:2; I Timothy 4:6; I Peter 4:11]
