THE TRUTH
I tell you the truth, the truth hurts,
It's salvation through belief of the truth which converts.
If you, like Pilate, say "What is truth," and turn away,
Beware-truth and error are as different as night and day.
By believing in Christ Jesus you become a saint,
But if you don't, his child you aint.
Today, you are at the crossroad of decision,
The choice is yours, God has made provision.
Don't be deceived by the wiles of the devil's lie,
He once told a woman in the garden "Thou shalt not surely die."
Satan is a liar, and the father of it,
There's no mortal man able to-Satan-outwit.
I know people don't like hearing about hell and the lake of fire,
But your soul's eternal destination is my desire.
If you err, you're in danger of Hell's eternal damnation,
While ever searching and never able to come to the knowledge of salvation.
Why would you want to go to such a terrible place,
Where you cannot even find one single drop of God's grace.
It matters not your opinion or point of view,
Make no mistake, God's wrath still abides on you.
