NO

If there is no Heaven or no Hell
What was Man made for do tell

Do we live our lives with no finish line in sight
It would be foolish to enter a race with no prize I think

Those who know JESUS, have won the prize 
I am so thankful,  I've won before I die

Persevere 

When you are down and out
And you don’t want to shout

Look around
See who’s about

Seek your friends
They have a love for you

They will help
To make your Goal come true

Say your Prayers every day and night
God is listening to your plight

When you least expect it
God will come through 
With everything you want and more too

Church 

All kinds of People go to Church 
Some are People who have found the LORD
And are Happy in Their Heart

Some are Looking for the Love
That GOD can impart

Some are inquisitive just to see what’s there
They don’t really care 

Some go to be seen
So others will not think they not mean

Whatever the reason you attend 
GOD is there to give you salvation within

If You Give Your Life to HIM
HE will Give You Joy Within

He will walk with You every step of the way
Bearing  your Burdens Every Day

The Perm 

A traveling salesman in the south at the time
My wife convinced me to get a perm, that my income might climb

With my new look, nothing could hamper me
The sales would soar. The money Would be flowing so free

At my first stop, I proudly entered the door 
Only having their comments, dash my hopes to the floor

Be Patient 

Being patient is hard to do
We want to get things as quickly as you

That’s what we’re taught from birth
Getting more nervous all the while
It’s taught us to lose our smile

No need to get in a hurry 
There’s plenty of time to spare 
You see GOD will always be there 

Slow down when you pray
And listen more every day 
GOD will bless you in his own way

Our patience will increase
As our faith in him grows
We’re not smart enough to know what all GOD knows

He will give us everything we need
More abundance than we could conceive 
If only we will wait to trust and receive
