“We all need Jesus.  Do you want to be saved?

Then say the prayer, after your hand is raised.”

I raised my hand two Sundays but was unseen,

but on the third Sunday, now, was finally seen.

We prayed.  God be praised!  Now, I’m saved.

But what if you and I were never ever seen?

Wouldn’t that be just so mean, so obscene?

But you and I are saved by faith in Christ,

surely not by the pastor’s good eyesight,

and certainly not by any prayer we say.

For it’s by faith in Christ that we’re saved.

⁹ If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  Romans 10. NIV
