Pearly Gates

Don't know if I'll see those pearly gates I've lived in sin thus sealed my fate forgiveness came redeemed my soul rejoiced to heaven tried not to fold but I erred and fell and did backslide my soul kept running. no place to hide I kept the faith returned to the Word stayed the course with help from the Lord I lived in sin, at last I'm free I can see those pearly gates ahead of me

Loved how you very simply penned everyone's hard path to Eternity, in fact! You are speaking for anyone of us who live in this world of sin, but stick to God's Love. Thanks for sharing; it helps going on... Blessings, Hanitra
