2) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
First, the innocent unborn souls, their mother, did abort.
God knew these before they were, formed there in the womb.
It's as if the uterus, is not there, a safe room.
3) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
Infants, toddlers, and young kids, in moving, they contort.
But many don't make it there, to the age of teens.
For these, a full productive life, it is never seen.
4) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
Angry at the thought of death, many stomp and snort.
But, when our first parents did, sin before The Lord.
Death, decay, came to all, sharper than a sword.
5) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
All the care and stuff one tries, it's not like a fort.
Young or old, most will die, in every sort of way.
Your eternal home based on, who for your sin, will pay.
6) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
Living like no afterlife, from your work and sport.
There's only two places when can go, when Earthly life is done.
It all depends on what you do, with God's Only Son.
7) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
When you leave the earthly harbor, to eternal port.
There will be no less days, in Heaven or in Hell.
Whether you accepted Christ, or heeded Satan's spell.
8) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
Satan blinds folks to the truth, he wants to distort.
The default for all is Hell, unless one does repent.
The one thing God requires, to believe on Christ, He sent.
9) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
God's Creation and His Rules, are the law and tort.
Everyone though has free will, to make eternal choice.
To accept, or there reject, The Lord's Loving Voice.
10) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
At the Rapture of The Church; The Lord will all souls, sort.
Those souls who died with faith in Christ, rise up to the sky.
The saved alive, will be changed, in twinkling of an eye.
11) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
All will answer for their life, in Judgment, report.
Either at The Great White Throne, or at the Bema Seat.
At your death, eternal home, now set and complete.
12) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
In tormenting pain of Hell, the agony won't abort.
By contrast, joy in Heaven there, for all souls, there saved.
Believed on Christ who died for them, and rose up from the grave.
13) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
Every day will be day one, the time will not abort.
Either you will praise The Lord, or curse yourself in shame.
Did you repent in earthly life, and call on Jesus' Name??
14) Compared to eternity, earthly life is short.
God wants all souls to repent, His Word there, does exhort.
Eternal joy in Heaven there, or pain in Lake Of Fire.
Will you accept Christ as your Lord?? Or go with sins desire??
