Why Didn't You Tell Me

The Pastor preached on Hell Where sinners and the Devil does dwell, It is the lake of fire The home of the Devil, the liar. As the Pastor preached on this sermon Our destination was ours alone to determine, Then to God we sang and unto him we did pray At Church, that morning, on Sunday. Then a man reached out to the Pastor and said Do you know what's worse than going to hell when you are dead, What's worse than knowing forever you'll suffer in damnation Knowing you once had a choice of Jesus's salvation. Knowing in the lake of fire you will forever burn Because, salvation was never your thought or concern, And then as you lament and suffer on The word and the love of God will now be forever gone. I have no answer the Pastor did honestly speak As a truth he did solemnly and biblically did seek, And as the Pastor spoke once again The Pastor said he couldn't think of a worse sin. Then the man unto the Pastor then said just think of it Imagine falling into the bottomless pit, Knowing soon you'll begin your eternal suffering and pain All falling on you like Hell's rain. What's worse than burning in Hell the man then did cry It's your choice your destination after you die, But, imagine your child passing you and their agony you do see Then your child cries unto you, "why didn't you ever tell me".
