YOU DON’T NEED JESUS?<\/p>\n

You say you don’t need Jesus,
\nI am sorry but I cannot agree,
\nIf you continue to reject Him,
\nIt means you’re lost for eternity.<\/p>\n

You can go ahead and deny it,
\nUse every excuse in the book,
\nBut before it becomes too late,
\nI urge you to take a closer look.<\/p>\n

Now in this current life of ours,
\nGod has given us all a choice,
\nBut instead of yielding to pride,
\nPlease take heed to His voice.<\/p>\n

You see, once this life is over,
\nWe face judgment like it or not,
\nAnd if we have chosen poorly,
\nWe’ll end up in a place very hot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
