Courtroom, The |
If tonight you stood in heaven’s court; |
To seek eternal favour… |
Would you face Jesus Christ as Judge; |
Or face Him as your Saviour? |
There are many who don’t quite know for sure; |
What that verdict would be… Ever… |
So lets imagine for a moment |
You are standing dead center… |
In the Courtroom of Forever… |
(instrumental) |
Sitting before you is a structure; |
Massive and intense. |
It’s here where your fate will be determined; |
Before this Judge’s bench… |
Then a voice booms: |
«This Court’s now in session.» |
And your adrenaline starts to rush. |
Peering down with eyes; |
That see through your soul. |
Is God the Father, your Judge. |
Then off to your left; |
Across the room… |
Is the virtual sillouette of sin. |
Stepping out of the shadows of condemnation; |
Your worst nightmare walks in. |
On his face is the smirk of evil incarnate; |
His mind fixed on your destruction in Hell. |
You’ve just been introduced to you prosecuting attorney; |
None other than Satan himself. |
The Bible says he’s the accuser of the brethren; |
So guess what he’s gonna do. |
He’s gonna accuse you of your sins; |
And he knows them all… Both the old ones and the new. |
He’s prepared his case for years; |
Now the golden moment is his. |
So in arrogance he presents his case to the Judge; |
And it comes out sounding something like this… |
«God, you see this worthless piece of trash over here! |
This one is a sinner to the core! |
This one’s commited adultery, |
Cursed his neighbors, stolen money, been into drugs, alchohol |
And even more! |
This hopeless wretch has even slammed his friends! |
And by the guilty face, this courtroom can tell. |
That through immoral |
Incertainty beyond |
