Heavenly Plan

Although I sin it matters not as long as I repent, no matter how much harm I do before my time is spent. But I must ‘see the light’ in time while earthly shell survives, then shed this evil from my soul while God’s still on my side. A life of greed and power and lust for three score years and ten and if the Bible’s got it right I think the time’s right then. But if the bible’s got it wrong no doubt my plan would shatter, though still I would not go to Hell repentance then don’t matter. It’s heads I win and tails and all the Devil has no chance for now I’ve read the Holy Book it’s taught me how to dance. So open up them pearly gates for me to pass inside, this prodigal will meet you there and thank you for the ride! Ivor G Davies
