Repentance is still Necessary



We’ve killed more babies than Hitler has killed Jews,

but you don’t hear it being reported by those of fake news.

God’s heart is broken, God’s heart is torn.
We’ve massacred billions of the unborn.

Number one cause of death isn’t sickness or disease,
it is abortion and God is displeased.

Call me a fear monger if you want, a mister doom and gloom;
you can now kill a baby outside the womb.

God is still merciful and He just to forgive,
but repentance is still necessary every single day we live.

Repentance just doesn’t mean to feel sorry, but repentance means to change.

It says this all throughout the Bible; what I’m saying isn’t strange.
