His Life For Yours

Jesus gave you his life.  
What have you given in return?
His death on the cross… 
 Are you concerned?

His life for yours… On Calvary… 
 Has been paid.
His offer of salvation has
 already been made.

The sacrifice on the cross 
2000 years ago.
Is the price he paid for your eternal soul.

The words; “I love you…”  
Are the words he’s been talking.
And he stands at your hearts door… 
 Politely knocking.

Won’t you invite him in…
  As an honored guest?
Then your life will be enriched…  
And blessed!

Allow him to bring health and
 peace to your bones.
He can bring restoration to
 your family and home!

“Come unto me.” Is the message
 of the master’s call.
Won’t you come to him now?
  One and all?

He’s here right now. 
 In this very place…
And extends to you his 
mercy and grace.

Please accept  heaven’s
“special invitation…”
You too can receive this 
wonderful gift of salvation!
