The Choice Is Yours Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Consider truth, its wondrous form
Consider wisdom’s gain
Consider refuge in a storm
Consider Christ who’ll reign

If you bid Jesus in your heart
He’ll bring you life and more
Eternity will be the start
Self’s death will be the door

Don’t turn your back and walk away
Don’t toss your head in pride
Don’t say I’ll come another day
To take you as my bride

For only fools have this mind
They live their life of sin
But I your God am never blind
I’ll never let them in

My offer now could be your last
How long have you to live?
Consider child before I’ve passed
This choice to you I give

A fool would think that all is well
Would think this life’s a game
He’ll gnash his teeth, he’ll weep in hell
While burning in his shame

I say these things because I care
Because true love is great
I have so much with you to share
But not with sin I hate

That hell is real! Should be no doubt
My Heaven’s also true
Consider then what life’s about
Life’s choice I leave to you?
