The Movie
There are so many lessons we can learn from ages past
From characters both good and bad like some great movie cast
But unlike some great movie to be classic by design
The past we see in scripture has an impact on the mind
Far greater as the Author is in writing His script still
Upon the hearts of all of us who bend before His will
As each of us are characters upon this set of life
Who live through joy and tragedy through happiness and strife
And each of us have promise for as long as we're alive
To be one of those characters who finally survive
When story meets its climax at our Saviour's soon return
Because we chose to follow lessons He planned we should learn
But unlike some great movie what we see today is real
And facts are facts no matter what we think or choose to feel
There are no mystic monsters who come walking from the sea
Or aliens from outer space to capture you and me
But worse there is a devil with his angel demon host
Who pose as spirits of the dead as dark and evil ghosts
And also pose as aliens from galaxies in space
To draw us from the only Source of life and truth and grace
For scripture does inform us there are other worlds out there
With people who inhabit them who serve our God with care
For us who are still burdened in this theater of sin
Ruled by God's one archenemy who draws the hearts of men
To focus on his fallacies and live by what they feel
Not worried for the future and the mark that's not God's seal
Assuming life is what they make it without consequence
When truth is come the time of trouble they'll have no defense
And will be in that tragedy just one of many souls
Who fulfilled Satan's purpose in his dark deceptive goals
That ends with tears of sorrow from the eyes of Him they grieved
When they had opportunity if only they'd believed
The many times God came to them to help them see the way
To live their part upon this set through all they'd do and say
That will end with His glory being where we'll all begin
For those who chose the side of Life and not the side of sin
