FROM HERE TO ETERNITY by Stan Arney © 2007 Life is short, it may last as long as one hundred years Then those left behind, perhaps will shed a few tears But your life will go on, for all eternity The question is where will you choose for it to be Imagine if you will, the great vastness of infinity As time will go on forever, endlessly Now imagine where you will spend your allotment Will it be in Paradise with God, or as Satan’s servant These mortal bodies are just a loan, a rental if you wish Immortal bodies are ours to keep, in glory or anguish Since you have chosen wisely, the Son of Man to believe Are you beginning to wonder about what you will receive You will be greeted by Jesus, what a wonderful sight All the stars in the heavens never looked so bright He will welcome you home, not as a servant but friend Are you glad this moment shall never come to an end You will be in God’s full glory with His Angels on high You will finally get the answer to your question, why You will be held accountable for the things you have done All will be forgot and forgiven, by both Father and Son What will Heaven be like, will the streets really be paved in gold Was it just a metaphor or exactly as we were told This new body will never age or again have any pain Praise God for all His glory, His Kingdom will forever reign Who would have believed when I left my mortal body I would travel from there and on to life eternally I wanted to thank Jesus firsthand for saving my life Now I am with Him forever more, God bless the afterlife. |
