Keep Eternity in View

My daddy never had a godly Heritage. Growing up there in the thirties on the farm. But one day in a little country Church, he heard the preacher's leather Voice, "You must believe and make a choice." He believed and everything was changed. And from that moment on his life was Different. He turned his back and walked away from that Old life and all its ways. Misunderstood and ridiculed by friends and Family. He kept eternity in view. And through the years he gave to me what Once he never knew, a godly Heritage. When I was young, I watched my daddy take His stand. I saw him when the times were good and Times were bad. He never changed and he never Compromised. He'd say, "Son, always remember, Only one thing really matters, Your Bible guiding you through life." He'd always tell me, "Son, you must be Different. Turn your back and walk away from this old World and all its ways. Misunderstood and ridiculed by friends and Family. Keep eternity in view. And through the years you'll always know what once I never knew, A godly heritage." Even though I had the privilege of a godly Home, There came a time I had to face God On my own. And one day, all alone upon my Knees, I heard the Holy Spirit's voice. I believed and made the choice. By faith I claim this heritage as mine. And from that moment on my life was Different. I turned my back and walked away from this Old world and all its ways. Misunderstood and ridiculed by friends and Family. I've kept eternity in view. And through the years I've come to know what Once I never knew, a godly Heritage. My children, you've been handed down this heritage. From your grandpa to your daddy, And now to you. To whom much is given much shall be Required. You must believe and make the choice. Walk with God and hear His voice. Stand up tall until your dying day. And hear your grandpa say, "You must be Different. Turn your back and walk away from this old World and all its ways. Misunderstood and ridiculed by friends and Family. Keep eternity in view. And through the years you'll come to know what Once you never knew, A godly heritage." Misunderstood and ridiculed by friends and Family. Keep eternity in view. And through the years you'll come to know what Once you never knew, A godly Heritage.
