save your life - newsboys

     Do you have any friends or family members who are not Christians. I do, and as a Christian myself, it's hard when I can't seem to get through to them about the gospel. I don't want to shove it down their throats and give them this big long list of what they're doing wrong, but I want them to live free of condemnation. The best thing to do is to pray for those people in your life who aren't saved, and also to be a light in the way you live. 
     This song by the Newsboys, though, kind of sums up what I (and I'm sure many of you other Christians) feel like saying to those unsaved people in my life, "I love you, and I want you have eternal life in heaven. Just... please! Believe! This is the truth!" Enjoy the song. 

 
I don't know why their skin changes color... it's weird but the song is good. Haha. :)

Lyrics:

Dear Friend,
You've been trying again
Doing whatever it takes to fit in
Falling for the lies of the world
You tell me you'd pay anything just to not hurt
What you want, I ain't got
What I have, can't be bought

There's something better I can give

If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life, gonna save your life

Dear Friend,

I'd be lying to you
If I told you this road that we travel would be smooth
Sometimes, you just wanna give up
Trying, and trying, but nothing is ever enough
Chasing things, but what for? (what for?)
You've seen it all, but want more

There's something better I can give

If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life, gonna save your life

I can see now you want this

And you know that you need this
Get away from the darkness
Get away from the darkness

I can see now you want this

And you know that you need this
Get away from the darkness
Gotta know who Christ is

There's something better I can give

If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life, gonna save your life

(Nothing better than this life) It's gonna save your life

(Nothing better than this life) It's gonna save your life
It's gonna, it's gonna save your life 



-Sarah :)


P.S.  "And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age." -Matthew 28:18-20
