If Christ as Lord we can't confess
If Heaven's not one’s goal
Errant; the heart's festooned with stress
And danger plagues one's soul
How quickly wealth becomes one's share
When life is less than sweet
How slow we are to come in prayer
Or sit at Jesus' feet
Yet after all is said and done
As flesh returns to clay
The Lord of life God's Lamb and Son
Will still His love display
When sick; how quickly knees can bend
How oft we kneel and pray
Than once again God’s no more friend
Once healing comes to stay
How swift wallets may have no zips
When needs are on the street
Silver and gold can seal one's lips
When joy is not complete
The joy that comes through Jesus Christ
The living God on high
When all to Him we've sacrificed
When to ourselves we die
Great fortunes come, vast fortunes go
Man's pride turns oft to shame
While warm spring rains devour snow
Still God remains the same
Quick is His love with love's reward
Quick when a soul's to win
Righteous He’ll wield His judgement sword
On those who've died in sin.....
