Its up to you

Brian Bevels 1977 (Centre al)



Its up to you on whom you serve
And for me I already know.
And I can tell you from experience
Jesus Christ is the only way to go.

Satan tries to tell us
We can do what we want to do.
But if you don't have Jesus in your heart
He will not be coming back for you.

As Christians we are not perfect
And yes we sometimes fall.
But we have a friend in Jesus
And on his name we can call.

The end of time is soon coming
Just look around you and see.
Bible prophesy is being fulfilled
Now where do you want to be ?

You may be straddling the fence
Not knowing what to do.
Your choices are Heaven or Hell
Its totally up to you.
