ON A COLD AND WINTRY NIGHT

I came to church one Sunday night,
A sinner, lost , undone,
I came to hear the Gospel preached,
To hear about God's son.

The one who can deliver
A sinful soul like me,
I wanted to know how to be saved,
How the lord could set me free.

I came to church on Sunday night,
But i found the door was closed!
They had cancelled the gospel meeting,
It was holiday time i suppose.

Others came and then turn away,
Disapointed at the sight,
The bars were open, the church was closed
On that cold and wintry night.

The Devil welcomed his patrons,
And i could imagine his glee
That the church was closed, the lights were out,
There was no welcome there for me!

I thought that this was the lord's day,
And not ours to do as we will,
Then why do men close up God's house,
While sinners are perishing still?

"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the manner of some is,
but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see the day."
                                                        Hebrew 10:25

" Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine."
11 Timothy 4:2
