When the Lord knocks at our heart,
We better not decline.

For all we know it could be the very last time.
God sent His Son to bleed and die on the cross,
For he didn't want anyone to be lost.

While traveling in this world seems to be no light,
When we give our hearts to Jesus, the way seems so bright.

He gives us strength to stand anything that comes our way.
I do believe He is proud when we take time out to pray.

Jesus is the Truth and the Light.
We do not know when He will come;
Could be like a thief in the night.

He is always there to pick us up when we fall,
So someday we will know it was worth it all.

When we get to Heaven, the streets will be paved with gold,
We will never have to worry about growing old.

It may be a hard struggle to get there,
But I know the Lord hears our sincere prayer.

I want to meet the Savior with a smile on my face,
And hear him say, 'Come on in, you've come to the right place.'

He will say 'Your loved ones are here waiting for you.'
I might say, "It took so long, for I had lots to do,

There were rocky roads to travel, and many hills to climb.
It was a hard way of getting here."

But I will not regret,
For the Lord will help me all the way,
And I will never forget that I can never make it
through a day just on my own.
I need His love to guide me.

We should let the Lord be our guide
For there is nothing that we can hide.
