Revelation 2:7 - Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
You too can have a place in Paradise....Or, allow the things of this world to rob you of it's eternal reality.
lyrics
Verse 1 - A-live!
I wanna be in P-a-r-a-d-i-s-e/
With the living water and no jets skis/
Yes! I’ll be eternally vacating/
Aint no sense in contemplating, cuz Heaven is my Destination/
Huh! And I never thought I’d make it/
I was playing church, I was too busy faking/
But I was sadly mistaken/
Until I got the revelation, that the fire in hell is blazing/
So now I’m chasing, I gotta see his face/
Full of glory, compassion, mercy, and grace/
Go ahead and get a taste/
And you’ll see that the Lord is good, he died for our sins and he took our place/
Go ahead and start the race, and suit up for the fight/
Cuz Jesus is coming back like a thief in the night/
So let your light shine bright and stay up in them scriptures/
You got a mansion in Paradise, don’t let it miss ya/
(Chorus)
Verse 2 - A-live!
Is there a Heaven for a G, that’s the question I used to ask/
But I wasn’t think about Heaven, I just wanted cash/
Had to get my money, had to stack it tall/
My only mission in life was to knock off the mall/
And ball til’ I fall, and drank til’ I faint/
They used to call me Shaq Diesel, I went hard in the paint/
(It’s Crazy) I lived a life full of sin/
But when I got the pearly gates I wanted in/
Not realizing sin separated me from God/
In my pursuit for happiness, I was really getting robbed/
Satan stayed on his job, but the Christ did too/
My life was dark as night but the light from Heaven broke through/
Now I’m saying what it do, on my way to paradise/
Yes his word is true, he gave me eternal life/
This is just for you, no matter what you did last night/
Just give your life to the Christ and see you up in the Paradise/
(Chorus)
Verse 3 - A-live!
Pearly gates, streets of gold, what a scene/
And eternity is a long time know what I mean/
Will you go? Do you think he’d let you in/
Or will he say depart from me you worker of sin/
Are you sure? Or do you need to second guess/
Cuz getting in takes more than just saying that you blessed/
It takes a life surrendered to the Lord Jesus Christ/
Sample – If you want Paradise/
What’s on ya mind bruh?
Man, I don’t know and honestly I’m not sure/
Cuz when I think of God, I think a life full of chores/
But I wanna spend my after-life in paradise/
I know that God is real, I just can’t get it right/
