The Book of Life

Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the house,
Not a creature was praying, not one in the house.

Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without care
In hope that Jesus would not come there.

The children were dressing to crawl into bed,
Not once ever kneeling or bowing a head.

And Mom in her rocker with baby on her lap
Was watching the Late Show while I took a nap.

When out of the East there arose such a clatter
I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash!

When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But angels proclaiming that Jesus was here.

With a light like the sun sending forth a bright ray
I knew in a moment this must be THE DAY!

The light of His face made me cover my head
It was Jesus! Returning just like He said.

And though I possessed worldly wisdom and wealth,
I cried when I saw Him in spite of myself.

In the Book of Life which He held in His hand
Was written the name of every saved man.

He spoke not a word as he searched for my name
When He said, "It's not here" my head hung in shame.

The people whose names had been written with love
He gathered to take to His Father above.

With those who were read He rose without sound
While all the rest were left standing around.

I fell to my knees, but it was too late,
I had waited too long and thus sealed my fate.

I stood and I cried as they rose out of sight,
Oh, if only we had been ready tonight.

In the words of this poem the meaning is clear,
The coming of Jesus is drawing quite near.

There's only one life and when comes the last call
We'll find that the Bible was true after all!

Today you were in my thoughts and I prayed for you...



Do you know Jesus as your personal Savior?.... Why not accept His free gift of salvation right now?
The Bible says, "Now is the acceptable time, behold, now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2)...
