Before it's too late


Flowing was the water
 But now it is still
 Everyone listens 
 Filled with thrill
 Children wonder 
 What will happen next?
 Adults stop partying, and put off their bets
 You hear that sound?
 Exactly, nothing at all
 Except of course……..
 That annoying birds melodic call
 Suddenly the ground starts to shake
 How Disastrous!!!!!!!
 A dangerous earthquake 
 Instinct tells everyone to run
 The superstitious wonder, just what have they done?
 Bodies are missing
 Lots of people dead
 You just have to wonder…..
 Where are they instead?
 Another realm perhaps?
 Or maybe in a different body, shape, or form
 How to know for sure
 You surely do not know
 This captivates you
 Did they get up and go?
 From the flowerbeds, to water and sky
 The man up there, who supposedly came down and dies
 Could this be where these precious souls went
 In heaven, or hell
 Could that be where their eternity was spent?
 I  pondered and pondered upon this thought 
 Then finally I came to the conclusion, that I had missed a lot 
 My chance was now gone 
 All those years I knew I was wrong
 I  picked my side, to live in sin
 I could no longer be born again
 Jesus left me on earth, he would come once more to end a fight
 That wretched wretched war with the antichrist
 So much time I thought I had
 I thought “God will take me, my sins are not bad”.
 God can't be in the presence of any wrongdoing
 This is the Lord of all
 Who are you fooling?
 Don't worry, this time has not yet come
 Think now and then, “What have I become”?
 Thinking that good … Is good enough
 That's just energy wasted
 Wouldn't you like to know and experience, How heaven tasted?
 So, become a Christian, but know trails await
 It would be smart to know Jesus 
 Before it's too late
