Pages radiant with truth,
The Book of Life shines before me;
Awed by the Word of God,
Enthralled by His love story.
Proverbs and Psalms,
Prophets, Judges and Kings,
Rich wisdom to the reader
The Book of Life brings.
Behold the center of the book,
The core of His~story:
The Cross of Jesus Christ,
His resurrection in glory.
Yea, this is the center,
The crux of it all:
God Himself died for man
To save man from the fall.
In the many pages
Let us gather wisdom to live;
Praise God for Words of Life
He does generously give.
Let us share the Gospel,
Let us proclaim His~story:
Jesus Christ died for us,
Yet He arose in glory.
Proverbs and Psalms,
Prophets, Judges and Kings,
All speak of Jesus,
The eternal life He brings.
Yea, radiant with truth,
The Book of Life shines eternally;
The Word of God endures,
Infinite is His love story.

Rev 3:5 (KJV)
He that overcometh, the same
shall be clothed in white raiment;
and I will not blot out
his name out of the book of life,
but I will confess his name
before my Father, and before his angels.

Revelation 20:12-15 King James Version (KJV)
****
[12] And I saw the dead, small and great,
stand before God; and the books were opened:
and another book was opened,
which is the book of life:
and the dead were judged out of those things
which were written in the books,
according to their works.
[13] And the sea gave up the dead which were in it;
and death and hell delivered up the dead
which were in them: and they were judged
every man according to their works.
[14] And death and hell were cast
into the lake of fire.
This is the second death.
15] And whosoever was not found
written in the book of life
was cast into the lake of fire.
