SOMEBODY ELSE

If you have been redeemed from your sins, you now have a reason to serve. Serving God is the greatest privilege in the universe, but it will not always be easy.

1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of The Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in The Lord.

Many Christians today say, "Let someone else serve. It's not my responsibility."

There's a clever young guy named Somebody Else

There's nothing this guy can't do

He is busy from morning till way late at night

Just substituting for you

You're asked to do this or you're asked to do that

And what is your reply?

Get Somebody Else to do that job,

He'll do it much better than I.

So much to do in this weary old world

So much and workers so few

And Somebody Else, all weary and worn,

Is still substituting for you.

The problem with this is that there aren't that many Somebody Elses out there. It's time we got off our blessed assurance and went to work.
