On a scale up to one hundred, please heart, tell me where am I?

With Jesus at one hundred... or with Satan will I die?

I believe that I'm a Christian - so "Christ-like" and divine -

but am I par with Jesus?  Say, with whom do I align?

If I'm not at one hundred then I've missed my Jesus' call.

Have I not helped the "least of these" nor fed them much at all?

Am I too busy with my house, my new car or career?

Does dining out or shopping have me so entrenched right here?

Now when's the last time I have served?  Have I been caught off-guard?

Yes, when's the last time I've obeyed?  Is my heart soft or hard?

Yes, I can make excuses thinking I'm above the most -

but if not at one-hundred, I'm a liar and a boast.

'Ye ac-cursed ones, depart from Me, into eternal fire.

Yes, Jesus knows that I am just a weak, pathetic liar!

Sincerely and profusely I cry out, "Please God, forgive!"

It's then grace covers all my sin and I 'one-hundred' live...

My idols do deceive me as I live from day to day -

so have I walked with Satan... thinking it was Jesus' way?

On a scale up to one hundred, please heart, tell me where am I?

With Jesus at one hundred... or with Satan will I die?
