What is the difference between, good deeds and Good Works, YOU may ask
That depends, is Jesus Christ, your Lord and Savior, I would ask
And your answer to this defines, which YOU may be performing
Which one is worth, your Heavenly effort, an answer I’ll bring
We can’t do enough good deeds, to earn our way, into Heaven
No matter what we do, we can’t erase, the depth of our sin
For by Grace, YOU have been Saved, through Faith, and that not of yourselves
Meaning each must claim, God’s Free Gift of Salvation, for themselves
This is The Gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast
God Almighty, wants YOU to accept this, is what matters most
God’s Amazing Saving Grace, by God’s Free Gift of Salvation
So, what is this YOU ask, do YOU want to know, how this is done
The Blood of Jesus Christ, cleaned our sin, for all Eternity
Yes, He died upon The Cross, for mankind, for YOU, and for me
God raised Jesus, from the grave, on the third day, Alive, and well
Christ then ascended to Heaven, Alive, His Life Work, we tell
Once we accept, His Free Gift of Salvation, our life goals change
God starts to mold and change us, our thoughts begin to rearrange
We are His Workmanship, created in Jesus, for Good Works
He redeemed Us, His Own Special People, zealous for Good Works
Those who Believe in God, should be careful, to maintain Good Works
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your Good Works
So they may be fruitful, know each must learn, to maintain Good Works
Do good, ready to give, willing to share, be rich, in Good Works
The Grace of God, that brings Salvation, has appeared to all men
Only through Salvation, do we have a way, back to Heaven
He who humbles himself will be exalted, sounds good to me
Serving humbly, The Lord Jesus Christ and Our God Almighty
So, good deeds are great, but unless YOU have God, a bit empty
I don’t dismiss them lightly, yet I want YOU, to truly see
God’s Amazing Saving Grace, by God’s Free Gift of Salvation
Good Works come first, then later your Heavenly destination
