Eternal Life By Franklin Price 03/26/2022 Eternal life is not a passing thing It's here with us to stay It's waiting at the end for us Not about to go away The choices that we make while here On Earth while we're alive Will let us see eternity Heaven or Hell, when we arrive Satan's always after us Always here, and standing tall Offering us most everything Temptation at his beck and call No rules, or laws to guide us On the way to Hell, it's clear We ourselves are all who matters When the devil's got our ear If we want them, he will give us All the treasures here on Earth Or we may look the other way Look to God for our rebirth Believing that our Lord and Savior Sacrificed his son that day On a hill upon a cross Will take believers' sins away Take up the banner of the cross Follow the footsteps of the Lord Apply the Golden Rule in life It is a rule we can afford When we're doing unto others As we would have them to us do We are following the path he trod Which is the best for me and you If we believe, we will receive A seat in Glory by his side And eternal life in Heaven Where on golden streets we'll ride
