The Judgement Throne Of God Poem by Royston Allen

To stand before the great judgement throne
My nakedness exposed and all alone
To watch my life played out before God
Seeing all my deeds and the paths I've trod
To feel my soul exposed to the Eternal Light
Under scrutiny of God's all seeing eye so bright
... Would hold such dread and shame for me.

Can anyone pass this great test of holiness?
For just one sin will expose their unworthiness
The sentence would be passed upon their soul
and where the worm dies not into Hell be cast
There the fire burns on and for eternity will last
That place of eternal torment and agony
... It holds such dread and fear for me.

Is there no hope or any way that I can flee?
The wages of my sin is deaths sentence for me!
I know that I am guilty of sin my Lord
and wish to escape that dreaded throne of God
Where can I go? Where can I flee?
Help me my Lord what can be done for me?
... Hell holds such dread and horror for me.

Then I heard the voice of Jesus say
'Roy, Come to me and walk my way.
Your redemption has been secured by me
When I died upon the cross to set you free
It was your sins that nailed me there
when I gave my all and sins penalty bear.
... The dread of hell and horror was borne by me.

'For I paid the price for your sin when I died
And God's law has been completely satisfied.
When you stand before the judgment throne
You will not stand there all on your own
I washed away your sin with the blood I've shed
and the Father sees Me standing in your stead
... For His great wrath has now been borne by Me'

Your name's written in The Book of Life by me
No more for you the wrath of God shall be
For God so loved the world you see
that He gave His only Son to die at Calvary
So that whoever believes in Him shall live
and to him eternal life God will give
... Now hell holds no dread or shame for me.

Such mercy is undeserved and I am blessed
For if entry to heaven was based on sinlessness
Then only Jesus would be allowed to go in
And all mankind will be excluded due to sin
It is by God's grace and mercy alone
For on the cross He died for sin to atone
... Now God's love and mercy is lavished on me.
