CAN THEY REALLY KNOW?

by Ronald Ferguson © 2005

They talk of seeing Jesus,
They speak of gloryland.
They talk of meeting Jesus
Upon some golden strand.

But do they know for certain,
That what they say is true,
When they tell of Jesus' love
Dispensed for me and you?

Do they know . . . Can they know? . . .
Can they really tell? . . .
Have they learnt . . . of God's grace . . .
Saving them from hell? . . .
Can they know . . . Can they know? . . .
Can they really know? . . .

They dwell as loving people;
Their lives sure prove their claim.
They praise their Lord in singing,
To glorify His name.

They breathe the air of heaven.
They glimpse God's rich reward.
Do good to one another,
Obeying Christ the Lord.

Yes they know! . . . Yes they know! . . .
They can really tell! . . .
They have learnt . . . of God's grace . . .
Each one saved from hell . . .
Yes they know! . . . Yes they know! . . .
They can really tell! . . .

Now all you uncommitted,
What is the choice you make?
Choose now the Saviour solely,
Or before the Judge you'll quake.

Now choose the Christ who loves you,
And breathe the heav'nly air.
Do good to one another,
And love them well with care.

You will know . . . Yes you'll know . . .
You can really tell . . .
You will learn . . . of God's grace . . .
Saving you from hell . . .
You will know . . . Yes you'll know . . .
You can really tell . . .
