Tsunamis, Earthquakes, Difficulties

Dude, have you heard about the news today?
Chile was hit by an eight point eight magnitude earthquake just this morning;
The news keeps talking about the tsunami warnings in pacific areas of the globe;
And people from Hawaii and even in other areas already evacuated their homes.

Dude, wasn't it only last month when Haiti was devastated by an earthquake, too?
And didn't the news broadcast that hundreds of thousands were killed also?
Oh, what about that tsunami that happened in Samoa?
Was it early this year or was it just a couple of months ago?

Dude, do you remember those devastating floods in various parts of the Philippines?
I was shocked and I was really shaken by it!
You see, I saw these heartbreaking videos from Youtube;
Those expensive cars, grand houses, and thousands of lives were all destroyed by typhoon, dude!

Dude, there are still many people here in New York who are unemployed.
The government and great Barack Obama are trying to do their best to avoid
The economic difficulties that keep on coming from various directions,
But you see, I don't think they will soon come up with any solution.

Dude, there is poverty and hunger in many countries still.
Wherever you go and whatever you do it seems
That problems keep on arising here and there;
Finding great solutions to these difficulties nowadays are getting thinner every single day, my friend.

Dude, I wonder when these problems will stop on coming
Coz every day of our lives we have to deal with them;
But, dude, you know there's only one thing I have in mind
The end of this chaotic world is really at hand!

Oh no, don't get me wrong my friend.
I'm not trying to scare you when I said the "end"
I just want to let you know that maybe it's time to repent.
Well, I will not force you coz it's still up to you, friend!

Dude, I am not shaken, you see
Because I know I have Him to rescue me.
How I wish you feel the same way, too
Because if not, maybe now is the perfect time to ask Him to stay with you.
