Me:
Let the fear of the Lord never depart from me
The way I live determines my destiny
I have a share in Christ if I hold firm to the end
I must follow His ways and on Him depend

Lord:
Your hearing is sharpened by your will to obey
Some believe for a while, but when tested fall away
They cannot enter My rest because of unbelief
Their hearts went astray, the time they loved Me was brief

Some have left their first love and forsaken Me
Repent and return to My ways I plea
Faith without works lead to the place of the dead
Lose your life for Me to gain heaven instead

2 Peter 2: 20-21 – “If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning. 21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.”

Hebrews 3:14 – “We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end.”
