New in Town
Source unknown
The first time I worshipped at their church That I had just moved into town I checked the proper boxes No one smiled or shook my hand But I stayed home each night that week Who cared enough to take the time And then a thought came to my mind So, I joined that church We hope you'll stay Ruth Gruennert
About two months ago
I signed the registration card
So all of them would know
And needed a little part
Of the loving concern for each other
That a Christian has in his heart.
To indicate my age
My marital condition
My sex, my spiritual stage.
When the services were through
And Satan whispered in my ear
"See, no one noticed you."
In hopes someone would call
It didn't have to be the Preacher
Just any one at all
In our dear Saviour's Name
To bid a stranger welcome...
But no one ever came.
That I'd like to share with you
Why should I sit and wait for others
To do what I could do?
And here I am...
Tonight is "visitation."
We're glad you came,
