Keep Looking Ahead Always, Not Back -Genesis 19: 23-26
There are many Bible lessons to be learned
some maybe minor but others are not so
really important to follow what God says
regarding divine words learn not to say no
Lot's wife's experience is well known
a real warning that God you must not ignore
our Sodom needs are left so far away
not letting it pull us in to be nailed to its floor
God is always true to His word
what He says He'll do that He will
as Lot's wife found out to her cost
be sure to wait on the Lord being still
Remember well the consequences of sin
as Sodom and Gomorrah suffered God's wrath
God poured forth His judgement upon them
this our lot when walking not His path
So fix it in your mind real deep down
keep looking ahead always, not back
you don't want to change into a salt block
better to look to Jesus in Him you won't lack
('Never look back' Genesis 19: 23-26)
(' The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar. Then the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah sulfur and fire from the Lord out of heaven. And he overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground. But Lot's wife, behind him, looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.')
