Too busy and got bills to pay
They say it’s wise to pray to God
And to thank him every day

So I mutter a quick prayer
A few words that are sure to please
Then I rush out the door
I feel my soul at ease

Went off to work
Forgetting everything I said
Oh well at least I tried
Could’ve said nothing instead

I’ve done my Christian duty
So I let the day pass me by
I didn’t know it really mattered
Till it came my time to die

There I stood before God
He said:
“I was going to write you and your daughter
Into the book of life
Yes I really did incline
To write your name in ink
But I didn’t have the time”

Not Enough Time....

Just not enough time
Too busy and got bills to pay
They say it’s wise to pray to God
And to thank him every day

So I mutter a quick prayer
A few words that are sure to please
Then I rush out the door
I feel my soul at ease

Went off to work
Forgetting everything I said
Oh well at least I tried
Could’ve said nothing instead

I’ve done my Christian duty
So I let the day pass me by
I didn’t know it really mattered
Till it came my time to die

There I stood before God
He said:
“I was going to write you and your daughter
Into the book of life
Yes I really did incline
To write your name in ink
But I didn’t have the time”

I really like this... It seems sort of sarcastic, humourous even. And I like that.

Nice message behind this.

Great write,
