don't forget the one

as i sit here and reflect I hear you whisper in my ear
"don't forget the one"
Lonely person in the corner
child who longs to be held
man who stays hungry without a job or home
don't forget the one
chance you get to show love
when memories lay heavy on your mind
as you go through your busy day
don't forget the one
who helped you get this far
who needs your help to keep going
person who is hard to love
don't forget the one
who waits for you to return
who is broken and hurting
sitting waiting for an invitation
don't forget the one
God who has called you
who laid down his life for you
chance you have to live
you constantly call to me
"don't forget the one"
