Demanded from you

Your life, this moment
when you are unprepared
demanded from you
in the courts of the Lord

The judge on the judgment seat
our life opened before him
full barns down below
the unmet call of heaven

To live our life as Christ did
to follow the steps of our Savior
love as he loves us
compassion for our neighbor

Full barns, apostasy,
turning our backs on God
the source of all we have
God on the mercy seat
