Never To Late

 

There's a sign posted up in Heaven

For all that enters there to see,

It hangs on the gates to Paradise

to be read by you and me

 

"Notice" to all my children

Is written across the top,

Then printed just below in red

"Before entry you must stop"

 

Underneath these words are written

"Three conditions you must meet,

And if you find you have a problem

Please do not retreat"

 

For on the right just above the key

Is a telephone just for you,

Pick it up and an angel will answer

They'll tell you what to do

 

Do not fear the angel

Because they'll help you unlock the gate,

You see my child I'll help you

Because to enter it's never to late

 

My first condition is very simple

Now that you've arrived above,

Beyond these gates are brothers and sisters

That you will always love

 

There are no attitudes to deal with

No prejudice shall be shown,

No gold or silver will line your pockets

And there is nothing you will own

 

You shall eat what is placed before you

No choices shall you choose,

For here we are all equal

Any privileges you will loose

 

My second condition must be abided

For there are laws that are set down,

They must be followed daily

Just like down on the ground

 

If these laws are broken

I shall turn you into stone,

Then you will sit among the rocks

Where nothing else is grown

 

These laws are very simple

They only deal with love,

I've made them easy to remember

Just look up for the white dove

 

My third and last condition

Before you may enter within,

You must be a believer of God

And free from any sin

 

So if you have been cleared below

And agree to the conditions above,

Then sign my golden guest book,

And unlock the gate to love

 

If your soul holds any doubt

There's still time to set it free,

Talk with the angel on the phone

Your message will be directed to me

 

Of all the souls that entered

Not one have I sent back

So do not fear your talk with me

Your words should never lack

 

Let me be the one for you

To open up my gate,

Call and we will talk my child

Because to enter it's never to late.
