2) It's appointed all to die, then judgment does await.
What you do with Jesus Christ, sets your eternal fate.
How you lived your life concerning, all of His Commands.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
3) Whether you like it or not, The Lord, He Made The Rules.
All those screaming ''There's No God!''; The Lord calls these ''Fools''.
Was your life built on the rocks, or on sinking sand??
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
4) If you would not there let Christ's Blood, for your sins, atone.
Terrified, you will stand there, at The Great White Throne.
An accounting of your life, Christ will there, demand.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
5) Every sinful action there, in thought, word, and deed.
No question of your guilt therein; none for you, will plead.
Exposing there of everything, actions and things, planned.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
6) God, being a Gentleman, will say ''Your Will, Be Done''.
''You there made the free will choice, to reject My Son''.
Like dissonance from music string, with a broken strand.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
7) Saying ''No'' to Christ in life; God gave what you desired.
You will spend eternity, there in The Lake Of Fire.
Tormenting pain and agony, flames forever, fanned.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
8) In life, before Christ, eagerly, you would not there, bow.
Compelled now, you realize, salvation's too late, now.
Christ Shed His Precious Blood for you, from His Nail Pierced Hands.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
9) It will truly break Christ's heart, to cast you to the flame.
Because you would not repent, and call on Jesus' Name.
Constant burning will be worse, than a cattle brand.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
10) For those who repent of sin; and on Christ, believe.
Humbly they come to The Cross; His Free Gift, receive.
At The Bema, lives reviewed, there on His command.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
11) Rewards will be gained and lost at the Bema Seat.
But, for true believers there, redemption now complete.
In Heaven for eternity, Paradise, their land.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
12) At Bema Seat, or Great White Throne, you will be at one.
On what you did with Jesus Christ; God's Precious Only Son.
This appointment you will keep; it for you, is planned.
Whether you want to or not; before Christ, you will stand.
