Let us now look upon, a situation from to learn |
|
Judas and the thief, one to heaven, one to burn |
|
Not too long ago, and in a land not far away |
|
One was saved one was lost, this is history |
|
Judas was religious, stay away from that mask |
|
The thief was truly guilty, and here is where it's at |
|
Once you understand that, guilty before |
|
God all we are |
|
You can receive forgiveness, in repentance at the cross |
|
Judas was never a true friend, just pushing his own glory |
|
Smiling in your face, stabbing you in the back, "doing this for God" is his story |
|
Sitting on that paper throne, elevated oh so high |
|
Well now the match's been lit, later days to the empire of lies |
|
The thief on the other hand knew a wrong from a right |
|
Doing wrong much of the time and sometimes doing right |
|
But he recognized the truth when he spoke to |
|
Jesus Christ |
|
His deeds had nothing to do with it, he'd never earn heaven as a right |
|
The damnation of |
|
Judas and the |
|
Salvation of the thief |
|
As for Judas in the scheme of things, as this point it's just a matter of time |
|
Hanging from the rope he spoke, the witness does not lie |
|
The facts are in and the veredicts out - and it cannot be denied |
|
He sealed his fate with and act of friendship - betrayer - no friend of mine |
|
The thief in the situation, knowing he deserved to die |
|
Called out to |
|
Immanuel, |
|
Lord remember |
|
I I come to you, with nothing more than the wretched man |
|
I am Guilty in my iniquities deserving only to be damned |
|
It's for your sins |
|
I am Crucified, the |
|
Spirit confirmed time and again |
|
The thief in his pain had joy in his heart - forgiveness it was his |
|
On his way to heaven he still had to deal the situation |
|
Understand that you bring nothing in repentance which merits salvation |
|
The damnation of |
|
Judas and the |
|
Salvation of the thief |
