If You Want to  Get to Get To Heaven

 

If You Want to  Get to Get To Heaven

Well just how good you gotta be?

Do You Want  to Get to Get To Heaven?

And then to live eternally?

If You Want to Get to Get To Heaven

How many good deeds must you do?

How does God rate your performance?

Have you even got a clue?

Tell me just how good you are now

Better than a Pharisee?

Jesus said we must be perfect

Are you behaving perfectly?

Do you feel you are deserving

a place in heaven all your own?

there's no place for imperfection

In God's holy eternal home.

 

You can go to prayer meetings

And watch out for what you say

You may even tithe your money

And be in church ev'ry Sunday!

But you cannot change your nature

For if you think a sin it's done

And there's a penalty for ALL sin

Jesus said "none are good not one!"

If You Want to Get to Get To Heaven

You've only got to realize

You've got to see from God's perspective

He wants us Holy in His eyes

Holy heaven woould be defiled

By letting in even one sin

What'cha gonna do 'bout that?

Seems like we just can't win!

 

'Cause a righteous Holy God cannot allow impurity

To come into His presence, but He has a cure for our disease.

He died to pay for every sin

In place of us He died-

For every sin throughout time

With Him was crucified!

 

They say nobody's perfect, well that's not really true

For we can know the death of self and become perfect and new

if you wanna get to heaven????????????????????
