Don't Let Your Heart Be Stolen




Don't Let Your Heart Be Stolen
By George Thurlow
 
 
"Don't let your heart be stolen"*
And from the Savior fall away.
Don't grow weary in the waiting,
Be vigilant and pray.
 
For the Bridegroom's surely coming
In an hour you know not when.
Do not become complacent
And let your light grow dim.
 
Stay filled with the Holy Spirit,
Have eager watching eyes.
Expect Him any minute
To appear in the skies.
 
Anticipate the Glory
Of your meeting face to face.
Keep your lamp light burning
Don't smolder in disgrace.
 
Be about the Father's business,
Not idle, sluggish, slack:
For surely is the promise
The Groom is coming back.
 
*"Don't let your heart be stolen."
 
Quoted from a message based on Matthew 25 given on 5/8/2005 by Rev. M.L. Mitchell of
Faith Lighthouse Assembly of God in Old Orchard Beach, Maine.
