Description
Satirical poem - do we truly want Jesus to take our sins?
Debt And Sin
“I stand at the door and knock”, He said,
“And pray you’ll let me in.”
“My house is such a mess,” said I
“With all my debt and sin.
Lord, let me do some housework first,
To clear my debt and sin,
And once my house is perfect, then
I swear I’ll let you in.”
“My friend,” He said beyond the door,
“There is no need of stress,
For I’ve seen homes far worse than yours –
I’m not surprised by mess.
In fact, my friend, I offer help
If you’d but let me in;
For I alone possess the power
To free you from your sin.”
