Analysis of What is Required?



For you and me, eternity
In heaven waits for those
Who will achieve when they believe
That faith is what they chose!

You cannot pay to go the way
Where Christians rest their souls.
Nor can you be someone sin free,
Despite your lofty goals!

But God has said the One who bled
To pay for every sin,
Has paid the price when sacrificed
So we can enter in!
