When You Have the Opportunity to Do Wrong

by Dr. Anthony Murphy writer

When you have the opportunity to do wrong,
as a Christian, you must say no and stay strong.

In these final days before the return of our Lord

we want to be confident of our seat onboard.

So many are falling away from their faith today.

There are many temptations coming our way.

We are urged to compromise, and not make waves.

Compromise, they say, and there will be better days.

But, we know that as a Christian we must do what's right.

Yes! In these last days it will be a continual fight.

A fight against good and evil, and evil seems so strong.

This is our assurance of God's return, that it won't be long.

God loves us and wants to be with us in heaven forevermore.

He will send angels to protect us today and tomorrow, that's for sure.

When we are walking on streets of gold, and enjoying the heavenly life,

it will take some time to adjust to no hatred, famine and strife.
