The Glory and the Pit

God is in His glorious home
where no impurity or sin can dwell
that's where the redeemed shall enter
the wonders no human voice can tell

There they shall worship God alone
focused solely on Jesus God's own son
where angels without number sing praises
to the triune God three in one

The place of that horrible pit
where satin and his demons will be
there all Christ rejecters go
never again will be set free

The never ending fire will be ablaze
nothing can stop it's terrible pain
eternity describes it's force and time
hell's permanence marks it's stain

So where will it be for you?
as Jesus arms are stretched open
pleading for your heavenly entry
to run from hell and its gruesome den
