2.Both Prosecution and Defense Attorneys in the case
Argue facts back and forth in the justice space.
Evidence presented there, for a jury to decide
If this life is innocent...or it has things to hide.
3. When all the facts have been shown, the jury makes the call.
Will life rise as innocent...or with its guilt there fall??
While some are rightly judged, acquitted...or if they get away...
There's one court date we all will make, one soon somber day.
4. It's written in God's Holy Word...it's appointed for all to die.
Then, after death...the Judgement...before God's Holy Eyes.
Everything we thought, or did, or said...will be revealed.
Whether it was done for all...or if it was concealed.
5. A Life On Trial, yours and mine...before God's Great Throne there.
How will you defend yourself, and your deeds all bared??
All of us have free will...knowing wrong from right...
All our dark and evil deeds shown before His Light.
6. God's Standard is Perfection...Holy, Pure, and True.
But, our righteousness is as filth...for just one sin we do.
The soul that sinneth, it shall die...it seems Heaven is denied
To anyone who ever lived, and followed foolish pride.
7. But, suddenly...for some folks there...a Voice Precious and Sweet
Says ''Father, these washed in My Blood...kneeling at My Feet''.
''Sorrowful, repentant of their sin...asked Me their soul to save;''
''Accepting Me as Saviour, Lord...their life to Me they gave.''
8. Untold millions of saints there now sing ''Worthy Is The Lamb''.
''Who died on Calvary and Rose Again, so we would not be damned''.
''We cast our crowns there, at His Feet...with our voices raised;''
''For Jesus Christ...yes, He Alone...is Worthy of the Praise''.
9. ''Well done...thou good and faithful servant''...now thus saith the Lord.
''Enter into My Joy herein...your Eternal Reward''
''Was bought for you on that day in faith you came to Me''
''To save your soul from Eternal Death...and to set you free''.
10. But, sadly...there are some people there...this Precious Gift refused.
Now standing there in Judgment...their lives that they did lose.
''Depart from Me, ye cursed...into Everlasting Fire...''
''For you shunned the One True Light, for sins dark desires''.
11. Life is like a vapor...and soon, it will all end.
''What will you do with Jesus Christ??'' God asks of you, dear friend.
Your life..you will account one day...with God, you cannot fudge...
Will Jesus be your Saviour...or will He be your Judge??
