Luke 18:27 But He said, “The things whichare impossible with men are possible with God.”

Well ya see God

I have been pretty good,

At church most Sundays

Staying out of the hood.

I give to the poor

I try to help the weak,

Since I am so bold

I try to speak for the meek.

The Bible says do this

And says don’t do that,

So weighing in your scales

Must be where it is at.

I must track my mistakes

We all sure do sin,

But if I work real hard

Heaven’s ticket I will win.

Lots of things I can do

To unlock the pearly gate,

What do you mean no

My pride has sealed my fate?

I believe in John 14:6

In access to heaven through you,

But there has to be so much more

What else must I do?

I thought you were the door

And my deeds were the key,

All my good in this life

Would open heaven for me.

So you have done it all

No scales in heaven are found,

I only must believe that

God’s grace alone will abound.

The free gift I accept

In this grace I believe,

Let me give my life now

For more love that I can conceive.

The good I do now in life

Is from love and not for pay,

Through the gift of God alone

Will I get to heaven one day.
