2) Heaven is not owed to you, for according to God's Word.
Its truth on this, may contrast with, all the things you've heard.
For all have sinned, and fallen short, of God's Glory there.
And, at death, God's Judgment falls, and it will not be spared.
3) Heaven is not owed to you, no matter what you've done.
All are guilty in their sin, before Christ, God's Son.
For everlasting torment, no decision is required.
Unrepentant souls will burn, in The Lake Of Fire.
4) Heaven is not owed to you, your deeds as filthy rags.
Just like bloody menstrual cloths, meant for garbage bags.
Unless the Blood of Jesus Christ, has washed your sins away.
In terror, you will face The Lord, there on Judgment Day.
5) Heaven is not owed to you, or anyone on Earth.
Unless repenting of ones sin, accepting The New Birth.
Believing on Christ Jesus there, God's Precious, Only Son.
His Death and Resurrection there, would be the victory, won.
6) Heaven is not owed to you, whatever you've believed.
Satan, like a roaring lion, he lies and he deceives.
God's Standard is Perfection there, no one on Earth can pay.
Except the saved on Jesus Christ, The Truth, The Life, The Way.
7) Heaven is not owed to you, God's Law, it does not change.
Your sinful soul is like a cancer, and a nasty mange.
The Gospel Truth, simplicity, in all it has to give.
Christ died on Calvary in our place, to all our sins, forgive.
8) Heaven is not owed to you, in what your life there, shows.
Eternal death, what all deserve, sin started long ago.
But, God commanded His Love to, mankind on the Cross.
The Precious Lamb Of God's Own Blood, would redeem the lost.
9) Heaven is not owed to you, when your life does end.
Unless you repent of sin, make Christ your Lord, and Friend.
Not going through the motions there, but truly, you believe.
And, from The Lord Himself to you, a pardon, you receive.
10) Heaven is not owed to you, to enter Heaven's Gate.
Repent of sin, accept Christ now, before it is too late.
For one day soon, everyone will stand before Christ's Throne.
As one of His, or cast away, as one He's never known.
