The Invitation

Heaven or hell, which place will it be? We were given a choice when He hung on sins tree. Why do you linger brother of mine? Your life could soon end without any sign. From dust you once came and shall return, Don't chance your soul to forever burn. The small voice you hear is calling to you, Don't let this chance pass to start life anew. Though your body will rest in a cold, dark grave, Your soul will live on so don't be Satan's slave. The Devil will tell you that you've plenty of time, But God said try the spirits and see which is mine. While Christians are praying let Him come in, There's rejoicing in heaven when one's born again. There's a Heaven to gain and a hell to shun, You can't get to the Father except through the Son.
