The Last Chapter In Your Life

© 2006 Words and Music by Mark B. Sostrin

 

< Verse >

He sat in the jail house sad and alone

Wishing he had a friend to call

Nobody with him when they locked the door

Just the writing on the wall

< Verse >

It said, if you’re sitting here you caused a world of hurt

With your passions and pride

You’ve got no excuses guilty as charged

Been dirty dealing all your life

< Bridge >

This time son better get it right

Look for your help from the Lord

Fact of the matter Jesus paid the price

Gave up his life for yours

< Verse >

He dreamed while he was sleeping what a fitful night

Wrestling between darkness and the light

So much commotion his knees began to shake

Then the devil come into sight

< Verse >

He showed him a paper with a headline which read

Tragic death of a sinful man

Stared right through him with those dreadful eyes

Demanding justice must be served

< Chorus >

Hope you got what you wanted you get what you deserve

Causing so much pain and strife

All your misdemeanors mount to a capital crime

It’s the last chapter in your life

< Bridge >

< Chorus >
