Getting Used to the Dark
Last night, a song came to my mind that I’ve probably not heard since the 1980s. It was a song the McKameys recorded titled, “Getting Used to the Dark.” When I woke up this morning, I looked it up on YouTube and was thankful it was there. I’d forgotten most of the words but I felt like God was reminding me of an important truth.
It’s easy to go through life merely existing. We may know the world’s going to Hell but, if we think about it, do we really care? Do we want to be different or are we trying to fit in? Every once in a while, I listen to an old song by the Freemans. The second verse says:
Not just a glimpse of those Heavenly scenes
And loved ones who’ve gone on before
But a vision of Hell and those agony screams
‘Til we ask nothing less and want nothing more
We need to ask God to open our eyes, give us a burden, help us to live a holy life so that we have something to offer those lost in sin. Remember that “friendship with the world is enmity with God.” I don’t know about you but I want the Lord’s pleasure, not His heartache.
i would like to get the soundtrack to this song. do you know where i can buy it
This song has been on my mind again too. I would recommend contacting the McKameys through their website: http://www.mckameysonline.com.
Thanks
