Does Jesus Live at Your House?

Thanks to Pastor Jim and the Net 153 Christian Magazine where the whole family can find health Christian resources.

I heard a child once ask:

Her little brew was furrowed

As she struggled with a task.

I saw her eyes were shadowed,

Her face marked with a tear;

The voice a wee bit wistful

For the answer she might hear.

"He used to live at our house,

With Mamma--Daddy, too.

But now He's gone away somewhere.

I don't know what to do;

For Daddy's not the same today,

And Mamma laughs no more.

They never bother much with me;

They say I'm just a bore.

"It didn't used to be this way

With Jesus in our home,

For every night my daddy came,

When all my curls were combed,

To help me say my bedtime prayer

(And Mamma helped me, too);

And they'd smile and tuck me in,

But now-they never do.

"Could you tell me where Jesus is?

For everything seems black?

We want Him in our home again;

We want Him to come back.

And when He comes we'll keep Him,

For we truly need Him so

If Jesus lives at your house,

Oh, don't ever let Him go!"
