What’s important today my friend?
Vital for you to do
If now abrupt your days would end
And death would call on you
Suddenly judgement would appear
Amidst life’s holy glow
Everything hidden will be clear
And everyone will know
Each evil sin festooned in shame
The filth, you thought to hide
The innocence you would acclaim
Could never be implied
How oft in life your way was wrong
How pleased you were alone
But Heaven heard your wicked song
And grace began to groan
Your secret deeds, no friend would please
Your nearest kin would frown
You gave no thought to bend your knees
To He who bears life’s crown
What will you, devoid of grace?
Without love’s guiding hand
When filthy before your judges face
You fear His sad command
Outer darkness may open doors
Hell’s fiery pit prepared
My friend, this future could be yours
If Jesus hadn’t cared
But Jesus cared enough to die
To cleanse His servants sin
Through grace reprieve both you and I
Eternal life to win…..
