Where Is My Name?

This is the story of a brother, who slept and woke up in Foreverland
He looked around, nothing is familiar, he wondered how he got to be there
He took a walk around the City, and saw a brick house with a small door
Walked into the room and saw a man in white, "must be an Angel" - so he said
"Mr Angel i am a stranger, don't know what's going on
The last thing i remember was that i slept last night"
[Angel responds:] "This is a Border Town that takes you where you get a crown
You must have heard of Heaven where you came from
Only those whose names i find written in this Book of Life
Shall forever be in Paradise"

"Is your name in this BOOK of LIFE?"

Flipping the pages of this great Book, this brother gave a cursory gaze
He saw the names of prophets, saints and martyrs - who kept the faith and won the race
So he said "Mr. Angel, where is my name?
Can you tell me what is going wrong?
I am a pillar in my local church, give the offerings and the tithes
I feed the poor and have myself a good name 

"Is your name in this BOOK of LIFE?"

Unforgiveness lurks within your heart
Some folks that you would never let go
Little foxes and secret faults
Will spring surprises on that Final Day


"Is MY name in this BOOK of LIFE?"

So much for this wonder brother
What about you, what about me?
Let he that thinks he stands
Let him take heed lest he falls
Only the pure in heart will see Jesus
Those whose garments glow with purity

"Is MY name in this BOOK of LIFE?"
Selah [pause a little and calmly think about that.]
