What Is Life About

Is life only about education and learning Followed by working and earning Up early to get to work and midnight light burning Never satisfied but for new stuff yearning Is it about gathering  possessions abundant Or are you in training for something more important  Like living a life of love for God predominant Like living a life over base passions triumphant Like living a life over daily sins and wrongs repentant  If you died today where will you spend eternity  Will it be with God in the golden city Will it be in the fires of hell what a pity Choose carefully as there is only one opportunity  There is no return from your eternal choice In heaven you will forever rejoice In hell the heat the pain the screams and the noise Jesus calls today listen to his voice Decide now as at the edge of eternity you poise Will your short years on earth count At the end of your life what will it amount Will you drink living water from the eternal fount Will you live for Jesus who died on your account Soon the silver chord broken and you’ll be gone The curtain between physical and spiritual torn Loved ones and friends for you will mourn No more chance to be spiritually reborn  Decide before you leave the body you adorn Where will you start your eternal dawn For temporal pleasures hold not him to scorn Who on the cross your sins has borne
