How much longer are you going to keep us in suspense?
If you are the Christ tell us plainly.
We ask this question ourselves, but this message can impart no lasting sense.
Yet hasn’t He told us this so many times and so clearly?
The problem is not being told, it is believing.
Does His life and work not bear adequate witness?
If He walked into the room now would we believe or stand there uncomprehending?
What is it in our minds that leads to this spiritual sickness?
He asks us to think of Him as a shepherd.
But we are too proud to follow as humble sheep.
We need to reason to question and never leave our doubts unheard.
But the prize is so great if only into this instant of faith we can leap.
Imagine that, eternal life.
That was His promise, pray cut our doubts loose with your merciful knife.
