Cross the Line

Cross the Line

A Poem by Joe
"

All you need is faith

"
Hear me out
Don't walk away
Here me out
You better pray

Someday sometime you'll cross the line
Breach the perimeter I dare you to
Don't say you've got nothing to lose

Everyone thinks they're invincible
Each their own personal God
But we're all so weak and insecure
What are we really living for

We waste anything worth keeping
And ignore the things we ought to believe in
I'm sorry if I sound like a know-it-all
But I'd rather you not take the fall

I'm not that strong and I'm not that smart
But I can keep you and fear apart
I'll push away the darkness
Ignore the fools who are so heartless

I won't become what I despise
I won't succumb to all of the lies
I can handle myself to some degree
Won't watch you cry won't watch you plead

He has the answers
We've got the hope
He'll welcome us when we're ready to go

I know the bench in front of the altar
Is always open in case I falter
I know the cross will always be hanging
'fore my sight slowly waning

Someday sometime you'll cross the line
I hope you step back quicker than I
Someday sometime you'll cross the line
Question what you thought was divine

We waste anything worth keeping
And ignore the things we ought to believe in
I'm sorry if I sound like a know-it-all
But I'd rather you not take the fall

He has the answers
We have the hope
I know where I will go

I won't deviate from my salvation
Got to keep the faith and clear the hatred

Someday sometime you'll cross the line
Believe in Him, you'll be just fine
