Time For The Choosing
The people railed against Him for the good that He had done
The good that proved beyond a doubt He was the Father's Son
They mocked Him and they taunted Him without the slightest cause
And constantly derided Him Who never gave them pause
To think Him less than holy less than Lover of their souls
Less than the One Who walked with them and daily made them whole
Returning love for hatred peace for evil they had done
And teaching only ever how God's love could make them one
But Satan was their master whom they chose through lives of sin
Whom they desired to have control of what they were within
Just sepulchers of emptiness whitewashed so they'd appear
To be the people God approved when what they were was clear
To all who had discernment who did truly serve the Lord
Who saw through time in scriptures Christ was He Whom they adored
And though they could not understand the works of other men
They knew that Jesus was the One to save them from their sin
But as we've seen forever so we see today as well
The hatred and the bigotry that has its roots in hell
Portrayed through those who mock the one ordained by God to be
The one who gains a little time to set the captives free
Those captive in delusion that still feeds their lust for wealth
That tantalizes all their tastes destroying love and health
And makes them pawns within the game of life that soon will end
When Christ returns in victory not as the sinner's Friend
For then there'll be no sinners singing I Surrender All
No failings in the faithful who have heard the Master's call
None tempted by the devil to return from where they've come
For all will have determined what will be their final sum
Accounting them as righteous by the virtue of the Lamb
Alike with Christ in oneness Who alone is the I Am
Or followers of Satan with no morals in their soul
Just self induced insanity which is the devil's goal
So friend today be wary of temptations that you see
Don't let them draw you from the path of true integrity
But keep Christ in your focus grasp His hand of grace through faith
And live your life as He would live if He were in your place
Matthew 23:27-36; Revelation 7:9-17
