Angelic Reminder

Every time I looked to Heaven This is what I’d see The pearly gates there opened Calling out to me I’d stop to pause a moment As I’d try to recollect The life that lay behind me My path so indirect I somehow made it this far Now will they let me in Did I remember to ask the Lord To forgive me of my sins I stand before the gate so wide Yet narrow is the path I fear that I have not done right And now must face God’s wrath Maybe He’ll show mercy Perhaps He will be kind I know I could have done better If I'd been given more time It’s now too late to ask Him It’s much too late to pray I should have done it sooner That’s the biggest mistake I made He doesn’t seem too angry As I kneel down and say I’m sorry please forgive me On this my Judgment Day He looked just inside his book And said with a grin “Blessed is the child of faith and love My child, please come in” So this is my reminder From heaven up above Find it in yourself today Show forgiveness, faith, and love
