Its Worth The Task

 

From whence does come this dreadful thought
My life is not what I had sought.
I lived my life to follow Him
Why do my chances now seem slim.

I’m sure there’s scriptures that tell me.
If I obey, I’ll be pain free.
But I’ll be damned if I can’t find
One scripture that comes to my mind.

If we expect God’s great reward
We must follow our true Lord.
He asked of us, pick up your cross
You’re not alone, its not a loss.

To climb a mountain takes great work
Why does heaven make us shirk?
Heaven’s rewards are so much more
Than anything we could fight for.

Don’t lose sight of His great plan
Our loving God the Son of Man.
It surely will be worth the wait
When we walk through that heavn’ly gate!
