In Today's Society

11 March 2014 2:46 pm

In today's society
 it's hard to keep hold of reality
Unless you understand the crucifixion
 There's no distinguishing fact from fiction
As the devil helps you to the mountain top
 He shows you all the wealth that he's got
Bow down and worship me here 
 And all of this will be yours from here to there
Every thing to please man
 All for us so we don't understand
Worldly wealth and popularity
 Comes at a price to high to pay
We all must die and go away 
 Follow Him and there's Hell to pay
What does it profit man to sell his life 
 An eternity in darkness absent from the light
Understand and learn it well 
 Christ lived and died and rose to tell
Everyone to reach the light 
 You must Give your life and this is right
Christ already paid the price you see
  All we pay is to believe
To the unbeliever
 The follower of the deceiver
Earth is the only heaven you will know
 Then when you die to hell you go
To the Christ like who don't just believe but know
 Great is your reward when its your time to go
Walking talking with the Father of all
As His friends we are called
