We Must Give Account -Hebrews 4: 12,13

God has declared through His inspired word
all that He is and all He can do
this word is living powerful and so sharp
more than two-edged sword this is true

This God is all-powerful indeed
there's nothing outwith His control
for sovereign, He is over everything
yes even you and every living soul

All that you know in your grey matter
as well as all that's in your sinful heart
fully none of it is hidden from God
all are naked before Him every single part

This God is eternal always shall be
our righteousness is like filthy rags
in His eyes detestable and obnoxious
we're without hope nothing to brag

Jesus came to our rescue
to save us and make us fit
to stand in God's holy presence
knowing in Christ we needn't quit

For all will stand before Him
there we must give account
if not in Christ we've no hope
but in Him, we have a living fount

("For the word of God is living and powerful, and
sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account." )
Hebrews 4:12-13
