Judgement Day

Jim Savarino © 1996

On a rainy Summer evening the Good Lord called me home
He said "Hi, come sit beside Me, Let's look at what you've done.
Don't be nervous, have some popcorn!  Relax, kick off your shoes.
Then We'll watch My home movies, right after the evening news."

Chorus

"Did you finish the things you wanted?
Did you discover My existence?
You weren't the smartest man I made,
But you sure did have persistence."

"There's a good one, what were you thinking? I really like that line!
Were you sober?  What were you drinking?  Or were you like that all the time?
Here's the best part, where you fall down, get up and fall again,
Those really weren't such bad ideas, but your timing was awful My friend."

(Chorus)

"It was sweet, and it was touching, the love you won and lost.
And the love that you gave right back, did you know it was worth the cost?
If you want, you can stay with Me, Lord knows you've paid your dues!
But eternity is a very long time, so be careful how you choose."

(Chorus)
