2) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
The truth of your eternal home, no longer is concealed.
It's appointed all to die, then judgment, it does come.
And everyone one that's ever lived, will stand before God's Son.
3) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
The verdict that is handed down, can not be appealed.
Those in Hell, realize too late, that they have been deceived.
Avoiding torment, would be theirs, had they just believed.
4) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
Your heart and your breathing stop, your blood is congealed.
Heaven is not guaranteed, no matter what you've heard.
One must repent, accept The Lord, revealed in God's Word.
5) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
For if you sow your wild oats, there throughout lifes field.
You'll regret eternally, if Jesus Christ, you spurned.
With Satan and his demon hordes, you will forever, burn.
6) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
The only way sins penalty, against you, is repealed,
Is if you repent of sin, accept Christ as your Lord.
For His Word is sharper than, any two edged sword.
7) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
Your life has been recorded, and played back, will reveal,
Every thought and word and deed, no question there of guilt.
And, whether you accepted Christ, and His Blood, there spilt.
8) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
For those who accepted Christ, full joy now revealed.
Absent from the earthly flesh, now present with The Lord.
Thankful that The Gospel Truth, they did not ignore.
9) Once you close your eyes in death, eternal fate is sealed.
One day there, before Christ's Throne, everyone has kneeled.
Tomorrow's promised to no one, don't wait till it's too late.
Or joy is gone, and torment there, is your eternal fate.
