For so long

For so long I've heard so many people
Crying out to God for His forgiveness
They raise their eyes towards His heaven and cry
Out from blackened sinful lives
When His mercy helps them live

They turn their backs and fall into the world
They turn their backs and fall into the world

You take for granted the gift of Jesus' passion
Knowing your life can be redeemed
But bear in mind that His return is near
And if your life is anchored by your vices
You will be shunned for you walked the widest path

The widest path
The widest path
The widest path
The widest path

Stand ready upheld by Christ
Living the life He made you to
And praise His name
For He is Holy, Holy
