The Woes of Witnessing

This Warren Barfield song really hit home for me! it still scares me to death to witness to someone! and there are times the Lord opens a door, and you are right there, your heart beating like crazy, your palms sweaty, the Gospel running through your mind. But the thought of leaving that place and not telling the person of the wrath to come and of what Jesus Christ our Lord did on the cross that he/she may be saved! it makes one wonder, what if I hadn't heard the Gospel that day I got saved? what if whoever witnessed to me had left me there with my doubts, fears and death wishes? Alone in my sin at the mercy of the seducing lusts of the world.

My Heart goes Out to You
by Warren Barfield

She sat a table away
Staring into space
In her own little world
And I saw a tear in her eye
Like a window to the mind
Of a frightened little girl
She never said a word
But I know I clearly heard
A cry for help
And I wanted to answer
I wanted to tell her

CHORUS:
My heart goes out to you
You don't even know me
You don't even know
Oh my heart goes out to you
And I don't know what else to do
To reach you now
My heart goes out

But I'm still glued to my chair
She's unaware
There's little time
And though my intentions are good
If I'm misunderstood
The price could be high
I can't fix whatever's wrong
But if I fail to pass along
Someone cares
The price could be greater
This can't wait til later

BRIDGE:
For God has loved the world so much
He send His only Son
From Heaven to earth
Well there's a distance love covered
She's just a table over
All she needs is a shoulder

CHORUS:
My heart goes out to you
You don't even know me
You don't even know
Oh, my heart goes out

Lord, help me do what I can do
To reach her, to reach her

Oh my heart goes out to you
You don't even know me
You don't even know
Oh, my heart goes out to you

Let me do what I can do to reach you now
My heart goes out
Yeah
