There's Only One Way
THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
If I want to go to Heaven,
am I willing to pay the price?
Do I often read my Bible?
What do I think of Christ?
Am I quick to give my neighbor
a friendly, helping hand?
When someone needs my attention,
do I forget my fellowman?
There's just one road to Heaven,
though the world thinks there is more.
I'd hate to be the person
on whom God closed the door.
It's not Heaven that I'm craving,
but to see my Maker's face,
and to know that I'm forgiven,
saved from hopeless, sinful disgrace.
Do I live for God each moment,
no matter how long He's away?
Or am I lost in life's great details?
There's only just one way.
