When I've fought the last fight,
When my battles all are won
As I finish my earthly abode
All my burdens I'll lay down
In exchange for a crown
At the end of life's road
I will see all my friends
All the ones loved so dear
Who are in heavens estate
And my love ones I will see
Who are waiting there for me
Waiting just inside the gate
I will meet all the saints
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Many others will also be there
First of all to see His face
Who on Calvary took my place
When we meet in the city so fair
When I come to the end of life's road
I will enter that heavenly abode
No more pain or misery I'll bear
No more sorrow or sin I will share
When I come to the end of life's road

Yes, God does gives mankind a free will to chose good or evil. However, God's desire is that all will except His free Grace, by Faith. ( Ephesians 2:8-9 )
You see, Christ died on Calvary's cross for your sins. ( 1 Cor 15: 1-5 ) How about you, friend, was this death in vain ?
