Die - Then What?

People get old, and people die,
Those who are left, often cry,
Those who are left, must continue,
No idea, what’s on the menu,
The time will come, we’ll lay there,
Others will mourn, those that care,
From dust you came, and shall return,
To heaven for some, others burn,
Well do I have, your attention,
About what’s comin’, worth a mention,
Have you been walking, in the Light,
Have you been trying, to do right,
Have you searched, the Holy Scripture,
And did you see, the big picture,
Have you decided, who to serve,
Can you step up, do you have nerve,
You can’t serve both, make your choice,
Speak up so everyone can hear your voice,
Stand for Truth, or side with the devil,
He’ll lie to you, he’s not on the level,
Come on today, make a decision,
Your life could use a little revision,
Clean up your act, or it’s straight to hell,
Don’t stay under Satan’s alluring spell,
Well whatta ya think, whatcha gonna do?
Ya goin’ down swingin’ with Satan too?
