Open your eyes and look around,
Take note of all that you see,
The wide open sky, with its clouds floating by,
The hills, the rocks, and the trees,
The cars and trucks and airplanes,
The railroad cars passing by,
Houses, stores, and mobile homes,
And buildings that reach to the sky,
Cats and dogs, and other pets,
The beasts that live in the wild,
People you know, and people you don't,
Every man, every woman and child.
Look at your friends and loved ones,
People for whom you care,
Look at your face in the mirror,
And imagine there was nothing there.
Imagine that all the things you see,
Were to suddenly cease to exist,
The heavens and earth, and time itself.
Can you imagine this?
Sometime in the unknown future,
There will came a faithful day,
When the One who created all of this,
Will cause it all to pass away.
God our Father and Creator,
Will destroy the heavens and earth,
And call to account at the judgment throne,
Every soul who received mortal birth.
Everyone you know, every face you see,
Everyone you will ever meet,
Every name you've read, or heard about,
Every stranger walking down the street.
Will stand and be judged, by the Lord,
When the world runs out of time.
And in case it hasn't occurred to you,
You to, will be in that line.
Are you ready to stand before the Lord,
When the books are opened wide?
Have you taken the proper steps,
To insure that your name is inside?
Have you accepted Christ as your Savior?
Are you saved by His blood on the cross?
If you have not asked Jesus into your life,
Then you are listed among the lost.
Ask Jesus to come into your heart,
And to save your immortal soul,
Add your name to the Lamb's book of life,
Be added to heaven's roll.
For every soul whose name is not listed,
Shall be cast into the fires of hell,
But every soul whose name is found there,
Forever in paradise will dwell.
Not one single person will be exempt,
Every soul must stand and face,
Either the mighty fearsome wrath of God,
Or His Love, and Amazing Grace.
