Letra de The Courtroom
<p>If tonight you stood in heaven's court to seek eternal favor...<br/>Would you face Jesus Christ as Judge or would you face Him as your Saviour?<br/>There are many who don't quite know for sure what that verdict would be, if ever...<br/>So let's imagine for a moment you're standing dead center...<br/>In the Courtroom of Forever...<br/><br/>Sitting before you is a structure massive and intense<br/>It's here where your fate will be determined before this Judge's bench...<br/>Then a voice booms:<br/>"This Court's now in session."<br/>And your adrenaline starts to rush<br/>Peering down with eyes that see through your soul..<br/>Is God the Father, your Judge<br/><br/>Then off to your left across the room...<br/>Is the virtual sillouette of sin<br/>Stepping out of the shadows of condemnation, your worst nightmare walks in<br/>On his face is the smirk of evil incarnate, his mind fixed on your destruction in Hell<br/>You've just been introduced to you prosecuting attorney, none other than Satan himself<br/>The Bible says he's the accuser of the brethren, so guess what he's gonna do<br/>He's gonna accuse you of your sins and he knows them all...Both the old ones and the new<br/>He's prepared his case for years, now the golden moment is his<br/>So in arrogance he presents his case to the Judge and it comes out sounding something like this...<br/><br/>"God, you see this worthless piece of trash over here!<br/>This one is a sinner to the core! This one's commited adultery<br/>Cursed his neighbors, stolen money, been into drugs, alchohol<br/>And even more! This hopeless wretch has even slandered friends!<br/>And by the guilty face, this courtroom can tell that through immoral<br/>Incertainty beyond any reasonable doubt, this one deserves eternal<br/>Judgement in Hell!"<br/><br/>The words of accusation still echo, your every sin thrown up in your face...<br/>Then God opens the book where every deed is recorded and reviews your record of disgrace<br/>God says "The book says you did this, this, and this and everything<br/>You were accused of today. Now before I sentence you to Hell forever, are there any last words you have to say?"<br/><br/>...Now if it's true you were standing there;<br/>In the Courtroom of Eternity<br/>With God to your front, and Satan-the prosecuter-to your left<br/>There's one remaining eternal truth - one that's crucial to remember...<br/>One you should never, ever, ever forget...<br/><br/>Then, on the other side of the Courtroom...<br/>(doom music)<br/>I said, on the other side of the Courtroom...<br/>(doom music)<br/>You ain't hearing me tonight;<br/>I said, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COURTROOM!<br/>(doom music)<br/>...Is the one and only Son of God, revealed in time and space<br/>And he's your defense attorney who has never lost a case!<br/>It's not Buddha, Muhammad or Krishna or any others who succumb to death!<br/>Ladies and gentlemen, on the other side of The Courtroom, is Jesus Christ of Nazereth!<br/><br/>Then Jesus jumps up, says:<br/>"Now what a minute God! I got something to say! May I remind you<br/>That on a cross 2000 years ago, I washed his sins away! I was<br/>Crucified, I died, they put me in a tomb, but long about the midnight<br/>Hour, the power of God hit me and I walked out of that grave, alive<br/>And well with ressurection power!"<br/><br/>Then the devil says:<br/>"It's in the book! It's written in the book! Check the book!"<br/><br/>God said:<br/>"Okay."<br/>Then He takes the book out, lays it open and says:<br/>"Now we'll see what this book has to say."<br/><br/>He turns to the first page...<br/>The second page...<br/>The third...<br/>By the fourth, the devil seemed shook...<br/><br/>God closes it, says:<br/>"The blood of Jesus must of worked...Because there's absolutely<br/>Nothing in this book."<br/>The devil says:<br/>"Now what a minute, check that book again! All his sins are written<br/>Down, they're all right there!<br/><br/>God says:<br/>"Devil, maybe you're mistaken all together. Maybe it's this other book<br/>Down here..."<br/><br/>Devil cries:<br/>"NO!! Not that book! Not that one!"<br/><br/>God said:<br/>"Devil, why you so uptight?"<br/><br/>God sets the book down...<br/>The dust flies...<br/>And on the cover it says: The Lamb's Book of Life!<br/><br/>(singing)<br/><br/>Is your name in that book?<br/>Is your name in that book?<br/>Is your name in that book for sure?<br/><br/>If you've been forgiven...<br/>And your name is written...<br/>Then lift your hands-praise the Lord<br/><br/>Yes, my name's in that book...<br/>My name is in that book...<br/>My name is in that book tonight...<br/><br/>I've been forgiven...<br/>And I know my name is written...<br/>In the Lamb's Book of Life...<br/><br/>(three blows of the mallet)<br/><br/>This court is ajourned...<br/><br/>(fade out)
