No Coincidence
There is not has not ever been nor will there ever be
Coincidence at anytime throughout all history
For everything that's happened everything that happens still
Is part and parcel with the plan that is the Father's will
That will that gives us freedom to believe what we will choose
Accepting His eternal life or life from Him to lose
To walk in full obedience or choose the other way
To let His Spirit speak through us or choose what we will say
For when you come down to it in this world in which we live
There's really only two ways in this life of take and give
The way of love and righteousness in Him Who reigns above
Or that which leads to pain and death the Bible tells us of
When we choose not to listen to entreaty from God's Word
Entreaty that still beckons us to hear what can be heard
From His sweet Holy Spirit as our Comforter and Guide
Whom Christ assured us would be here and in Whom we can hide
From him who is the enemy who tempts us into sin
Who's purpose is in everything to twist the thoughts of men
From purity of purpose to the darkened web of lies
Wherein the soul that follows him just forfeits life and dies
And everything that happens everything we see and hear
That brings us joy and happiness or anguish pain and tears
Originates from one side or the other who controls
The path by our submission has command within our souls
For in the greater picture with eternity at stake
Outside the realms that we can see the choices that we make
Determine on whose side we choose at last to take our stand
With heaven in the balance and the life that God has planned
When battles will be over and our Saviour comes at last
To claim the ones who knew His love and gave to Him their past
And lived each passing moment in the hollow of His hand
Revealing in their characters that He had full command
When Satan tried to tempt them tried to pull them from the Way
Tried desperately to lead them to the end where he will pay
For every sin committed for which Christ was crucified
For which He sealed the devil's fate when on the cross He died
Psalm 18:46-49; 1 Thessalonians 5:14-18; Ecclesiastes 3:1
