Hey you! mighty man of valour
Exact where were you
When God called you by name?
Next to a burning bush?
Honing your boat building skills?
Thrashing corn in a wine press?
Sleeping in the temple
Not recognising His voice?
Trying on your new wardrobe,
Coats of many colours are the ‘in’ thing!
Fishing with your brothers
Blinded by a bright light,
Over charging taxes,
On the road to Philippi
Did He send down angels
Or did He come Himself?
Did you recognise His voice
did you believe what He said?
Did He change your name to something more inspiring
Had you gone home to say goodbye
To family and friends?
Were you listening to the pastor
Studying the bible,
Down on your knees?
At a missionary conference
“Here I am, send Him”
Dry cleaning your fleeces
Putting them out to dry, again,
Doubting like Thomas
Less I see the scars
How do I know it’s Him?
Or did you just say
“Here I am Lord”
Took up His cross and followed Him?
