LIGHT UP CHRISTIANS!

 

(Solo)

Hear ye, hear ye, to all LGBT!

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender listen to what I say

Come, let’s celebrate our liberty

For at last the world is setting us free

Same sex-marriage is granted to us finally

(LGBT)

We have been hiding/ from the world’s /cruel judgment

We suffered a lot /from our family’s mistreatment

To the society,/ we are abandoned and condemned

But this time/ not anymore my friends,/ for finally /people accepted us, /yes, /it is proclaimed!

(Solo)

I beg to disagree with you,/ fellow citizens

How you behave, /to GOD, /brings insults and shame

If you feel rejected by people,/ you cannot blame

For God/ did not create any other gender/ but male and female

(LGBT)

Wait a minute!/ It’s not our choice to feel and act this way

But we have no choice/ but to accept our destiny

To be like us/ is not that easy

But/ this is what /and how we become/ unfortunately

(Christians)

Please / listen to us /our dearest friends

God/ has a plan for you,/ please /try to comprehend

God loves you,/ He does not want you to be condemned

Jesus/ suffered/ and died on the cross/ so that/you will be redeemed

(Gays)

 Jesus, who is this Jesus that you are talking about?

We always hear this name since we were young.

This is the name that our parents use every time they condemn us to death

When they found out that we are gays, they told us that Jesus will burn us in hell

(Lesbians)

You just do not know how much we struggle

Not knowing who/ and what we are/ is truly a battle

We know that inside of us/ something is wrong

But/ we have nobody to tell/ and explain to us/ what’s going on

(LGBT)

Before you jump into conclusion,

Please /take time to think our situation

When we are prompted with confusion

No one was there/ to answer our question

 

(CHRISTIANS)

That’s why/ we are here for you today

Our intention/ is to set you free/ from the work/ of the enemy

JESUS/ wants us/ to show you the way

HE/ does not want you/ to forever go astray

Only believe/ on what the Bible say

(LGBT)

Believe on what the Bible say? Duh!

To convince us/ is not that easy

We visited to your church one day

But you just laughed at us ha, ha, ha, yes, we became the source/

 of your mockery

(Lesbians)

When you look at as, as if we have the sickness of leprosy

From head to foot, you stare us condemningly

(Gays)

We don’t need your insults. What we longed from people is genuine acceptance!

(CHRISTIANS)

No,/ what you need/ is true repentance,/ you need deliverance!

Let the LORD/ bring enlightenment/ and transform your chaotic life

GOD/ can help you/ through the cleansing power/ of the blood of Jesus Christ

(LGBT)

Oh really?! Hmmm! If your God could really change our lives, / why didn’t He change yours? We heard you gossip each other./ We see you/ rejecting and ignoring those people who come to ask for your help!/  We did not see any difference between you and us./ No, /not at all!

(CHRISTIANS)

Please/ don’t focus your eyes on us.

Focus your eyes on JESUS

Just like you/ we are not sinless

But/ we are dependent /on Christ’s daily forgiveness,/ we sin less/ only by God’s grace

Please/ listen to us/ our dearest friends

Allow the Lord Jesus Christ/ to save you; let HIM come in to your heart. Yes, HE wants to help you,/please/ allow HIM/ to set you free!

(LGBT)

Free?/ We are already free.

The world accepted us already.

(Christians)

Freedom from the lake of fire is what you need./ Please/ listen to us/ fellow creation of God

God loves you,/ He cares for you./He wants to rescue you./

Let the LORD deliver you!

 

(LGBT)

Wow,/ we are almost convinced with your words,/ but sad to say,/ action speaks louder than words./ If JESUS really cares,/ then/ HE must have cared enough/ to change you first!

(CHRISTIANS)

Oh Christians,/ did you hear them?/ We are losing our testimony.

 People do not really care about what we say./ They expect us/

 to live our lives/ in a godly way.

It’s not about our religiosity./ What they want to see is our integrity.

So light up Christians, please, /light up!

(CHRISTIAN MEN)

Ladies, Christianity is not about how long your skirt and how well you dress, but it’s how you adorn yourself with Christ righteousness

(CHRISTIAN WOMEN)

Men of God, to light up for JESUS is not about how expensive, branded and shiny your shoes,

but it’s how far your feet brought you to spread the good news!

(LGBT)

So much to that /Christians, stop winning us with your words alone

Let us see the so called life-changing power of the gospel through your action!

(CHRISTIANS)

O Christians, please let’s start shining for Jesus

They need to see the light, the light of Jesus Christ

Let’s stop destroying the message of the gospel.

Light up Christians, light up!

(Gays)

Oh Christians, just let us see and feel your sincerity

If you think that we are really losing our way

Then, please pray that your God will heal us from this insanity

Because if hell is really real, then we don’t like to suffer eternally

(CHRISTIANS)

Yes, hell is real

God prepared this place to those who are spiritually ill

But God is always ready to heal

If you claim His promise and bring back the rainbow to Him

(Lesbian)

Bring back the rainbow to HIM? No way!

This is our identity

Hey, you LGBT, if you are deceived by Christianity,

Not me!

(LGBT)

Oh Christians, don’t give up on us

Show us the light of JESUS

Please continue to light up Christians, Light up!

(ALL)

Christians, please keep the flame burning, keep on lighting up!
