O! Careless Soul!

O! Careless soul 

Why would you 

Die, when it’s not

Yet the time allotted? 

Pause and reflect! 
Life is precious, Enjoy it. 

 

O! Careless Soul 

Why remain adamant 

Despite all the admonitions

And counselling from those 

Who loves and wishes you well?

 

O! Careless Soul 

Time and tide 

It's not on your side 

Soon, your breath 

Will cease, your mouth 

Will be sealed.! You’ll be motionless 

 

O! Careless Soul 

Harden not your 

Heart, swallow your

Pride, seek the path 

Of reconciliation and Righteousness!

Do so Now! 

 

O! Careless Soul 

You are not the first 

Nor the last, many

Have treaded this path before  

But repented and are saved 

You can do the same! It’s 

Never too late, 

While you breathe! 

 

O! Careless Soul 

Each Day is an opportunity 

God is giving You 

Do not take it for granted 

Seize it,  do not postpone 

 

O! Careless Soul 

The greatest thief of time 

Ever known to Man is called 

Procrastination, do not Entertain Him. 

He is a bad Guest! 

 

O!  Careless Soul!

O !Careless Soul!

O !Careless Soul!

Heed the pleadings 

Of loved ones. 

Make amends. Correct your ways. 

 

(Lamentations from a loving heart. )
