Surely there comes a day of lasting rest
A place where for our souls we did invest
Doubtless there is coming such a day
It’s a place of love, happiness and peace
A place where all our burdens shall cease
Truly there is coming such a day
A place to free every man of this world’s test
Sad for whom due to sin leave out the best
But there shall still come such a day
For him that chosen worldly pleasure instead life
But on that great day in hell his soul finds strife
Woe unto Him on such a day
Then now is the time one must take heed and sin not
If not one will lose out of paradise and hell be his lot
Despite his lots there shall come that day
You may say I am speaking like preacher or a teacher
But what if I am call by God as such a chosen believer
Whether or not there will come such a day
Say I am one who is like unto a watchman at his stand
Who has to be on guard helping others to understand
Even so there shall come such a day
Still you fear not for I am not a proper prophet
But if you remain in sin what shall be your profit
Surely there comes a day of lasting rest
There is only two choices paradise or hell

Great rhythm and flow with lovely lines, that promise salvation for us all if we live to love and forgive that is a recipe for a better world!
Yes, there comes a Day of final Judgement when our actions will be weighed and reward will be given! So strive hard to accumulate wealth for the life to come! Very prophetic write!
