TO MY DEAR SISTER
<p>
There are times I wonder,<br>
why life can be so rough.<br>
No matter how hard I try,<br>
everything is just too much.<br><br>
I try to read my scriptures,<br>
and find the time to pray<br>
I wish there were more hours<br>
in each and every day.<br><br>
One day I'm on the right track,<br>
the next day, I know I'm not.<br>
Why is it so hard to listen<br>
to all that I have been taught?<br><br>
I've made so many mistakes,<br>
and now I know I've strayed.<br>
From the Straight and Narrow,<br>
oh, I wish I had obeyed.<br><br>
I feel ashamed of myself,<br>
and all that I hold dear.<br>
Can I ever get back<br>
is the one thing I fear?<br><br>
My sister, I love you,<br>
Jesus said with a smile.<br>
I'm here to help you,<br>
it's just going to take awhile.<br><br>
I've been here all along,<br>
right beside waiting for you;<br>
To open your heart, let me in,<br>
I'm the one who will return your virtue.<br><br>
I've made a way possible,<br>
so you can come home to me.<br>
It's not the easiest way,<br>
as you can plainly see.<br><br>
Look into the mirror sweet sister,<br>
and you will surely find;<br>
A wonderful sister I want to come home,<br>
for she is truly mine.<br><br>
I paid the price for all your sins,<br>
every last one those 40 days.<br>
I never gave up no matter how hard,<br>
I couldn't follow Satan's ways.<br><br>
My wonderful sister, don't quit,<br>
you've come so far, oh, not now.<br>
I promise you'll look back one day,<br>
you'll say, I actually did it, wow!<br><br>
Always remember, not only me,<br>
but also your eternal dreams.<br>
Your life on earth is very short,<br>
at least to me, that's what is seems.<br><br>
Before you know it, life will be over;<br>
you'll stop breathing and surely die.<br>
You can't escape death,<br>
it comes to all, that is not a lie.<br><br>
You have to decide to follow me,<br>
or you may decide to not.<br>
When it all comes down to it,<br>
the world doesn't offer a lot.<br><br>
All it really offers will not last,<br>
it only offers limited things.<br>
The things that keep you from me, <br>
and all your hopes and dreams.<br><br>
Never give up, dear sister,<br>
I love you no matter what's been done.<br>
Eternal life will surely be yours,<br>
and celestial glory you will have won.
