Long ago, Jesus came and died; Of this fact the prophets testified.
Because of sin, Heaven we would miss.
Jesus came and did something about this.
God saw the plight we were in. Jesus, alone, could rid us of sin. So He came and was our guide.
Then He died.
The price for sin, I could not pay. So Christ came; He was the way.
The things about Jesus, God's Word verified.
Then He died.
Man had lost his way.
To redeem him, there was a price to pay.
"It is finished!" Jesus cried.
Then He died.
In His Word we are told, The price of a slave, He was sold.
God's Word, from us, He did not hide.
Then He died.
A sacrifice was required since the fall.
The sacrifice Jesus made is good for all.
Jesus preached, raised the dead, and was crucified.
Then He died.
God saw He would have to give His Son.
No one else would do; He was the only One.
In Him we now abide.
Because Jesus died.

While here I want to finish the work the Lord gave me.
But in heaven is where I want to be, Because Jesus I long to see.
The One that came and died for me.
About Heaven I have heard.
And read about streets of gold in His Word.
With gates of pearl at the entrance to each street.
Jesus is coming to take me there, and in the air we will meet.
God is already preparing a place there for me.
He loves me so much that is the way He wants it to be.
I read of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who are there.
And that Heaven is a place God wants to share.
Surely Heaven is a place all would want to go. But by their lives and deeds it does not show.
Heaven is more beautiful than our valleys and hills.
There is no sickness, no need for money, no more bills.
Are you prepared to go to that heavenly place?
Or will you one day face Him in disgrace?
Heaven is a place God has prepared for all. If you listen I know you will hear Him call.
So come, come go with me.
You must make Jesus Lord, if Him you want to see.
An invitation He has also given you.
Because He wants you to be there, too.
Only a little about heaven in His Word we are told.
But on what I have read and heard I am sold.
There is only one way for sure for me to know.
Check on it myself .... Go ....
