THE BEST CHOICE

I can people see, galloping fast towards destruction.

They feel blithe and gay;

And know only this day.

What to them is honey

Has them led quickly astray

On the accursed, broad way.

Now are lost many!

The immutable cost they’ll pay:

These based on the Bible, I say.

Life’s a journey;

Souls their souls in it may well slay.

So, for me, I will the reality plain lay:

Take money;

And then give me godliness, peace, and satisfaction.
