Keep on Moving
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Keep on moving before you get stuck
The foolish believe, good or bad they have luck
Divine intervention is all that there is
When appointments are made, the appointments are His
God gives you a choice; if you love Him you win
If you tell Him stay out, He won’t let you come in
He’ll honor your wishes; He’s kind but He’s just
You can choose just to love Him or choose your own lust
While you’re still filled with darkness the light is your friend
But the choice that you make you’ll receive in the end
It’s only the dead that cease moving at all
The choice must be made now! To rise or to fall
Blessed are those that through death go on living
Jesus Christ is Almighty and He is forgiving!
