Lyrics:
When Life Comes To An End

Verse 1:

When life comes to an end,

It’s too late then, my friend 

To wish you had lived some other way.

For all who’re lost in sin 

When the judgement day begins 

Will hear the words Christ has to say.

 

Chorus:

“Depart from me, for I don’t know you.

Heaven is for those who trusted me.

I’m sorry, but I don’t know you

I guess you never came to Calvary.”

 

Verse 2:

But many on that day 

Will stand to Christ and say

“Why you know me, I’m your right hand man.

I taught, I preached, I prayed,

I tithed and I obeyed,

Please let me in the promised land.

 

Chorus:

“Depart from me, for I don’t know you.

Heaven is for those who trusted me.

I’m sorry but I don’t know you.

I guess you never came to Calvary.”

 

Verse 3:

But those who have been saved

Will kneel to Christ and say,

“Oh Lord I thank you for your love and grace.

I’m not worthy to come in, but you saved me from my sin

I gave my to you that day.”

 

Chorus:

"Enter in, ye chosen seed of man.

Heaven is for you, yes you’re my friend.

Enter in, I recognize you.

Welcome to the promised land.

Welcome to the promised land.”
