If tonight you stood in Heaven's court   To seek eternal favor   Would you face Jesus Christ as judge   Or would you face Him as your Saviour?     There are many who don't quite know for sure   What that verdict would be if ever   So let's imagine for a moment you're standing dead center   In the courtroom of forever     Sitting before you is a structure   Massive and intense   It's here your fate will be determined   Before this Judge's bench     Then a voice booms, "This court's now in session."   And your adrenaline starts to rush   Peering down with eyes that see through your soul   Is God the Father; your Judge     Then off to your left, across the room   Is the virtual silhouette of sin   Stepping out of the shadows of condemnation   Your worst nightmare walks in     On his face is the smirk of evil incarnate   His mind fixed on your destruction in hell   You've just been introduced to your prosecuting attorney   None other than Satan himself     The Bible says he's the accuser of the brethren   So guess what he's gonna do   He's gonna accuse you of your sins   And he knows them all   Both the old ones and the new     He's prepared his case for years   Now the golden moment is his   So in arrogance he presents his case to the Judge   And it comes out sounding something like this     "God, you see this worthless piece of trash over here?   This one is a sinner to the core   This one has committed adultery, cursed his neighbor, stolen money   Been into drugs, alcohol and even more     This hopeless wretch has even slandered friends   And by that guilty face this whole courtroom can tell   That to a moral certainly and beyond and reasonable doubt   This one deserves eternal judgment in hell"     The words of accusation still echo   Your every sin thrown up in your face   Then God opens the book where ever deed is recorded   And reviews your records of disgrace     God says, "The book says you did this, this and this   And everything you were accused of today   Now, before I sentence you to hell forever   Are there any last words you have to say?"     Now, if it's true you're standing there in the courtroom of eternity   With God to your front and Satan the prosecutor to your left   There's on remaining eternal truth, on that's crucial to remember   On you should never, ever, ever forget     That on the other side of the courtroom   I said, on the other side of the courtroom   You ain't hearing me tonight   I said, on the other side of the courtroom     Is the one and only Son of God   Revealed in time and space   And He's your defense attorney   Who has never lost a case     It's not Buddha, Mohammed or Krishna   Or any other who succumb to death   Ladies and gentlemen on the other side of the courtroom   Is Jesus Christ of Nazareth     Then Jesus jumps up, says, "What a minute, Judge   Now I've got something to say   May I remind you that on a cross 2,000 years ago   I washed his sins away     I was crucified, I died, they put Me in a tomb   But long about the midnight hour   The power of God hit Me and I walked out of that grave   Alive and well with resurrection power"     The devil said, "It's in the book, it's written in the book   Check the book," and God said, "OK"   Then He takes the book out, lays it open and says   "Now we'll see what this book has to say"     He turns to the first page, the second page, the third   By the fourth, the devil seemed shook   God closes it and says, "The blood of Jesus must have worked   'Cause there is absolutely nothing in this book"     The devil says, "Now, wait a minute, check that book again   All his sins are written down, they're all right there"   God said, "Devil, maybe you're mistaken all together   Maybe it's this other book down here"     The devil cries, "No! Not that book, not that one"   God said, "Devil, why you so uptight?"   God sets the book down, the dust flies   And on the cover it says   The Lamb's Book Of Life     Is your name in that book?   Is your name in that book?   Is your name in that book for sure?     If you've been forgiven   And your name is written   Then lift your hands, praise the Lord     Yes, my name's in that book   Yes, my name's in that book   Yes, my name's in that book tonight   I've been forgiven   And I know my name is written   In the Lamb's Book Of Life   In the Lamb's Book Of Life     This courtroom is adjourned    these lyrics are submitted by Anonymous
