There's A Cut-off Date For Sin

There's A Cut-off Date For Sin

There's a cut-off date for sin
That when it's over it is over
Death is its expirary date
There's no more starting over
Remember you said you were going to change
Well..guess what...that promise is broken
Now you've finished your earthly life
And Hell will be your token

O you've been told the truth alright
When it came to your soul's matter
But you consistently put it off
Thinking you'll check it out later
Well later's come and here you are
Not where you'd wish to be
Because you were so consumed with the temporal
You never thought much of eternity

But truth be told you had your chance
God brought His Word to you
Through His special sent messenger
That the Holy Spirit had led to you
But did you take it as from the Lord
No!.. Satan kept you blinded still
Because you determined within your heart
That you were bent on your own will

Listen... God is real as all get out
His Word will never change
To set your mind against it friend
Will mean it's just deranged
God has grace for every sinner
Come to the mercy-seat's Throne
And give your life a new expirary date
Guess what?!!!...there won't be one!

You cannot disagree with God's Word
And think that you're going to Heaven
For It alone points the way of Salvation
So believe it while you are still living
Drop your pride and embrace the truth
For it has everlasting duration
The gift of God is eternal life
What a wonderful...wonderful Salvation!

Hallelujah what a Saviour!

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
