THE WICKED ARE GONE FROM THE PATH I WALK
BECAUSE YOU DROVE THEM OUT BEFORE ME

If we do not prepare for death
How foolish will we look?
When the Lord our God prepares to judge
And opens up the books

When He sits down upon His throne
Will you begin to pray?
If you say yes, I’d like to know
Just what is it you’ll say?

I did not open up your book
I broke all your commandments
I never really knew your son
So please forgive me damn it!

You can’t blame all of this on me
And call me to account
For all the things that filled my life
And drove your presence out

I never had the time to try
To really get to know you
You should have made it easier
The gate’s too small to go through

Do you think all your arguments
Will change your circumstance
I’m sorry but when you have died
There is no second chance!

AND IN YOUR LOVINGKINDNESS LORD
YOU SURELY HAVE RESTORED ME
