Every moment consumed by intense regret
For all eternity
I cannot ever forget
Of what will never be
I came so close
Why didn’t I listen?
Why didn’t I repent?
I knew in my heart
I had a chance
It was my choice
Yet I chose by default
I ignored His voice
Maybe another day I would say
But that proved too far away
I refused the pardon
Said no thanks to the Gift
The window for mercy is shut
The door has been sealed
Too late to repent
I have decided
No turning back
No turning back
I’ll never know mercy that He died to provide
Guilty as charged
No way to pay
Yes, I did it my way
I’ll never know grace that he wished to impart
Heir of God
Co-heir with His Son
Glory of God
Heaven
All out of reach
Now, my sin will never depart
Blemished and blotted
Why didn’t my friend do his part?
Why didn’t she make me listen?
An eternity of regret
Perishing without end
He is light and Light is not here
He is love and Love is not near
He is the Water of Life
And neither resides here
Oh the stench of rotten flesh
And unrighteousness
The flame is not quenched
The worm continually consumes
No friends or partying here
Fire and sulfur
Weeping and wailing
And gnashing of teeth
All proclaim doom
Forever and ever and ever
I can see at a distance a table
Not prepared for me
A feast for a king accordingly
Oh so close but yet so far
If only if only if only
His words ring out endlessly
No turning back
No turning back
I Have Decided
Then he will also say to those on the left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Matt 25:41 CSB
Then I will announce to them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you lawbreakers!’ Matt 7:23 CSB
