Living on Death Row

To those who are in jail, in prison, or on death row,
we are not here to condemn you, or to judge where you have been,
but rather to offer you hope;
hope that is found in Jesus Christ.
May our words be a source
of comfort and encouragement to you
through this difficult time.
A Letter from Death Row
Oh mama, you wouldn't believe how hard it's been
living on death row,
its dark cell of cold steel metal, it sickens me,
yet I only have myself to blame.
I never dreamed that I could become such a monster,
that I was capable of taking another person's life.
One bad decision in a heated moment caused such anguish,
and now I must pay with my life.
I await like a spider hovering over a flame
for the messenger of death to tell me it's time.
My eyes are parched, mama,
searching endlessly for materials to plan my escape.
I've climbed these prison walls a thousand times in my mind.
Night after night outside my window,
I hear the voice of the preacher
pleading with me to accept God's mercy.
He calls out relentlessly,
his convicting words laced with compassion.
"No matter how far into the pit you have fallen,
God's grace is greater still.
Come to Christ with nothing to offer,
come to Him just as you are!"
One endless night flows into another
as I cover my head with my pillow to drown out his words.
I think the preacher is right mama
in a strange way we are all on death row,
sinners condemned to die by a Holy and Just God.
The preacher says there's no locks, no bars in heaven,
the gates of the City are open day and night.
The evil ones will be cast into the fire,
no one will look longingly through the windows.
Oh mama, I miss your touch! I miss your smile,
I'm sorry for the anguish that I've caused!
I see my sin, I've dismissed my appeals,
and now I am in agreement with God.
When the messenger of death tells me its time
and I must walk its darkened hall,
I won't be alone mama,
for I will be escorted by the angels
into the presence of God!

Tonight, if you would like to receive the gift of eternal life
first you must believe in the Lord.
You have to ask for your sins to be forgiven
and place your trust in the Lord.
There's only one way to heaven and that's through the Lord Jesus.
That's God's wonderful plan of salvation.
You can begin a personal relationship with Him
by praying a prayer such as the following:
"Oh God, I am a sinner.
I am sorry for my sin.
I want to turn from my sin.
I receive Jesus Christ as my Savior;
I confess Him as my Lord.
From now on I want to follow Him.
In Jesus' name, Amen."
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
~ Romans 10:13
"According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world..."
~ Ephesians 1:4

he shall gather the lambs with his arm,
and carry them in his bosom,

~ Isaiah 40:11
