If you could check your Heavenly bank account,
would your balance be high or low?
Don't even believe you have one?
Indeed you do, just so you'll know.
would your balance be high or low?
Don't even believe you have one?
Indeed you do, just so you'll know.
God established it when you were born,
but only opened it the day you matured.
Since then, your righteous words and deeds
there are deposited and assured.
If you are old and your balance is low,
more time and grace to you He may extend,
Then wait, see and record when and how
your words and ways you will mend.
If you are wise, you will praise and thank Him
for this tremendous opportunity
To have another chance to avoid paying
Heaven's 'low account balance fee'.
In using your extra time and grace,
will you be demonstrably diligent,
Or toward goodness and righteousness
become even more belligerent?
Before going on an extended trip, like me,
is it your well-established custom
To check account balances to avoid becoming
an "insufficient funds" victim?
Well death is one very l-o-n-g journey
you certainly should not take,
Before making sure your Heavenly account
is in the best possible shape.
We Americans are now acquainted with
the concept of "paying it forward".
Some practice this idea, even with a video
to ensure their good deed is recorded.
So why should the idea of a Heavenly bank account
to our ears sound so strange?
Why should God be less ardent, a record of ALL
our words and deeds to arrange??
