Is there anybody out there
That has happened upon these words?
Is there anybody out there
Who would think it NOT absurd
To ask YOU for encouragement
In the trying times we face
Is there anybody out there
Thinking this thought of mine misplaced?
Is there anybody out there
Offering to lend an ear?
Is there anybody out there
Willing to listen…and REALLY HEAR
The struggles of a Mother
Raising a family all alone
Is there anybody out there
If so, sweetheart, please come home!
Is there anybody out there
Living the trials of a Father
Who’s tireless efforts to provide for his family
Seem OVERWHELMING…so why should he bother!
Is there anybody out there
That needs a hug, a warm embrace
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE IN THIS GOD-FORSAKEN PLACE???
Who’s heart is bursting at the seams
Who even cares what all this means?
Is there anybody out there
Who could use a friend today?
Or have you looked around and found
You YOURSELF pushed them all away
Is there anybody out there
Who needs a kiss upon the lips?
Or has life gotten in the way of passion
And you’re just too tired to give a flip!
Is there anybody out there
Praying for another
Father, brother, sister, Mother
Friend or enemy, foe or lover?
Is there anybody out there
Who ponders deep within their heart
Questions with difficult answers
While their lives are falling apart?
Then let me be the one to tell you
Of the Savior’s love
Sent to earth by The Holy Father
From Heaven up above
To live the righteous life
That we all strive for everyday
The Father knew we needed a personal guide
To help us along the way
So when your heart is heavy
When you feel sad and all alone
When worry overtakes your thoughts
Leaving them bare and prone
To Satan’s attacks on your mind
The whispering little lies he tells
Because his misery needs some company
And it’s You he is trying to sell
A bill of goods, a tasty treat,
Another drink please…on the rocks!
The effectiveness of his weapons include
The whole barrel, lock and stock!
And he aims not just at your heart
He aims straight for your head
He knows if he can control your mind
Then you are already dead!
So when you question, who’s out there?
And when you think no one cares
Know there is one named “King Jesus”
Who will always meet you there
In your time of need
When you’re feeling lost and alone
Sweetheart…JESUS IS THE ONLY LIFELINE OUT THERE!
HE IS THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT HOME!
Sweet friend, I love these penned words. A classic message for a changing world we find ourselves in.
