More Than Just Fate

From this temporal fallen state, many consider just simple fate,
Into that eternally blissful place, only achieved by God’s Grace.
From the Garden where man fell, destined to the flames of Hell,
God had instituted a Sacrifice, so man could re-enter Paradise.

From that garden of initial bliss, the mark of God all men miss,
The perfection required by God, to walk again on heavenly sod.
During time men contemplate, what from God’s more than fate,
What men from earth can achieve, if in God they’d only believe.

We can’t attain much on our own, braving this earthly life alone,
Especially avoiding our Creator, who sent to us a loving Savior.
He not only has answers to, the eternity ahead, for me and you,
But all of the questions in this life, are answered in Jesus Christ.

All men must acknowledge Him, and walk a life opposed to sin,
Our walk then receives His light, with answers to wrong and right.
New answers to old questions heard, from the Truth in His Word,
And God’s Word will testify, about God’s Son, who came to die.

For His own Son became a man, to carry out God’s Eternal Plan,
And from above He came to earth, to ascribe to us eternal worth.
An eternal relationship was restored, with God, in Christ our Lord,
To live new life for the Savior, as we wait to live with our Creator.

Unlike men who accept just fate, we believe God and anticipate,
The soon return of our Savior; who will rejoin us with our Creator.
A planned event, sure to come, but only if you know God’s Son,
And for those who accept just fate, it will just simply be too late.

He's coming very soon, the signs are very clear,
And when that trumpet sounds, we’ll be otta here!
Waiting in Him with Great Expectation,  Bob Gott

Wonderful as always a preacher poet you are,
