Choosing to Sin

God clear in this language
what Christ meant to earth
coming to this world, light
into the darkness, the world
offering a way of redemption
only to accept his gift
repenting of our old lives
claiming a new one in him
but so many choosing sin
happy in the darkness
unable, unwilling to change
choosing death over him
