There are alot of folks think'n
I am bound for hell
That for all of eternity
That is where I will dwell

I don't do the things
They think eternal life does require
They think I've spent too much time
In both the muck and the mire

I don't tow the same line
With which they themselves yoke
I don't repeat the same mantra
Or always hang around the same folk

But I know my God
And I know what He has said
And I know some great day
He will raise me from the dead

And my desire when that happens
Is to only hear Him say
"Well done my servant
Now with me, eternally stay."

"You were a sinner
You did many times fail
But I know you loved me
And I saved you from hell"

I will then be silent
For the first and only time
No witty remark
Not even a rhyme

I will simply bow
And lay any crown at His feet
As all fear and concern melt away
When my Lord and God I do meet

So be careful my friends
Don't be concerned too much
When folks speak ill of you
With their gossip and such

Be concerned only
About what He will say
When you stand before Him
On that most solemn day.
