Heaven
THIS SINNER'S PRAYER VI
To Larry Craig
Not everyone will enter heaven,
Some think they will live there—but they won’t;
Only those who obey will go there;
Some could change their choices—but they don’t.
People say, Take me Lord, I know You,
I’ve read and heard Your word preached for years;
I know You command my world and Yours,
In the end, you’ll wipe away my tears.
Others cry, I tried to do my best,
But living isn’t an easy task;
People and things can manipulate,
I’m sorry now that I put You last.
A few folks don’t want to be bothered,
They have been weighed down with a big lie;
Robbed of will—believing it’s to late
To change their outcome—before they die.
Tell me what you want me to do Lord—
When you look into my heart you’ll see;
I could not bear to hear you saying,
I never knew you; depart from me.
LORD: I have a lot of work to do,
I haven’t always been kind and fair;
But I’m willing to change—show me how,
Dry my tears Lord—hear this sinner’s prayer.
Remember me in heaven LORD,
Amen and Amen!
