1000 Sundays

Less than a thousand Sundays
That is all we have
To share our faith with children
And help them know God's love

Perhaps it sounds a long time
So many days ahead
But perhaps half those Sunday's
Are mornings spent in bed

Another load are holidays
And at least a few they're ill
So half of that's more likely
500 hundred, is it plenty still?

How about the teenagers years
Do they stay engaged
Is it something they stick with
Or do they drift away?

We need to think about it
Don't stick our heads in the sand
These children need our ministry
To help their faith be fanned

Kids work is discipleship
It's honest and it's true
We must give it everything we can
To help them be disciples too.
