CHOOSE
There comes a time in every ones life,
When we must chose a road to follow.
There comes a time in every ones life,
When we must choose to sacrifice.
There comes a time in every ones life,
When we must choose a God to follow;
We make gods of wood and iron
And we make gods of silver and gold
But only the Lord God can rain down fire.
I remember a man named Elijah
While he stood there on the mountain side
He built himself an alter;
Then he said these fateful words;
He said: choose you this day who you will serve,
Choose you this day who you will follow
But don’t wait too long for it will be too late
When the Lord starts to rain down fire.
Well, the alter is the world and the idols are material gain.
Can your money buy salvation?
Can your cloths hide sin stain?
Will your friends be there when you need
Them to heal the sick or raise the dead,
When the Lord starts to rain down fire.
If the Lord be God serve Him
Ort is Baal be God Serve Him
But only the Lord God can rain down fire
That will destroy this alter and it’s idols.
So choose you this day who you will serve.
Choose you this day who you will follow
But don’t wait too long for it will be too late
When the Lord starts to rain down fire.
