From inch by inch to mile by mile,
And so many light years away,
The vastness of space
Goes on forever.
In our own little universe
Nothing seems to change out there;
The stars shine brightly on,
And the planets forever orbit.
Nothing is really known
How everything began;
Only speculation from science
And, of course, belief in the Bible.
As long as I can forever see,
All the stars up there,
There's only one way I can believe;
God created my world for me.
Everyone has their own reasons,
Why they believe the way they do;
Each has their own world,
And I have mine.
If you belive in God, Jesus and the Bible,
You know that this utopia
Cannot last forever
As much as some think it will.
Too many people crowded here,
And wars of terrible disputes,
Not quite understood by many,
Seem to last forever and more.
What people don't realize,
Is that there's no forever now,
As frightening as that sounds,
There's only forever after.
So choose your path rightly,
As it may be your very last.
Keep God in your heart
And you might have forever after.
