The Hearse

Chorus

Don’t wait for the hearse       to take you to church

Don’t wait for six strong men      to carry you in

If you wait-------till your dying day----to meet the Lord----your soul will pay

Don’t wait for the hearse     to take you to church

V1

Jesus didn’t come down for a vacation

He didn’t come for the scenery

He came to tell the Word to every nation

And died for the sins of you and me

                                           Repeat chorus

V2

The pearly gates don’t open to strangers

You can keep a knockin’    but they won’t let you in

Without Jesus’ blood as your salvation

A lake of fire will be your only friend

                                           Repeat Chorus

Bridge

Will your family be confused       not knowing your favorite hymn

Will your first sermon heard       be when they’re closing your lid

                                 Repeat Chorus
