This Life

For all those who know not Your Name
And froth about beneath You in shame
For all those who deny You exist
And then add their own little twist

For all those lives of blasphemy
Unbelievers who never did see
For each and every single soul
Lord Jesus, You have paid the toll

Yet they still curse and spit upon You
For Lord, they know not what they do
They still doubt Your power
Even with the approaching hour

For all these souls and mine too
Jesus I kneel down and pray to You
With so many of us lost
Thank you Jesus for paying the cost
