His Shoes Are Left Empty
In Honor of the Life of Dr. Stinnett Ballew
June 8, 2019
I attended a funeral
just a few days ago,
It was for a man of God
Who had faithfully served Him so.
His shoes are left empty,
Who will fill them now?
If we’ll only desire and volunteer,
God will show us how.
He raised money and men
For the foreign field,
He encouraged all God’s people
To give, to go and to yield.
His shoes are left empty,
Who will fill them now?
If we’ll only desire and volunteer,
God will show us how.
Writing 24 books to help
All over he did constantly preach.
Represented on 120 radio stations
From his words to his actions he did teach.
His shoes are left empty,
Who will fill them now?
If we’ll only desire and volunteer,
God will show us how.
His life was consumed for Jesus.
He used all his energy and breath,
Faithful to his wife and to his God
All the way up until his death
His shoes are left empty,
Who will fill them now?
If we’ll only desire and volunteer,
God will show us how.
So many great servants of God
Have now moved off the scene
Our Christ is returning soon
So let’s live dedicated and clean.
His shoes are left empty,
Who will fill them now?
If we’ll only desire and volunteer,
God will show us how.
