It's not hard to be a Christian
and fill a friendly pew
Where only friends surround you
and praise the things you do.
But God would have us share His word
with those who know Him not
On darkened streets and avenues
where sinners cast their lot.
Here dwell the non-believers,
and those who have not heard
That Jesus Christ still loves them
according to His word.
Here dwell the lost and lonely,
the homeless and the proud,
Who, like sheep, have gone astray
by following the crowd.
Here dwell the broken-hearted,
the abandoned and abused,
Who have seen the "Sunday Christians"
and walked away confused.
It's not hard to be a Christian
and fill a friendly pew,
But after the Benediction...
can Christ be found in you?

"Go ye therefore,
and teach all nations..."
