 Earning Heaven by Raymond A. Foss 
						
 “What must I do?”
 the lawyer’s question
 to earn life eternal
 a seat in God’s courts
 at the end of my days
 
 The words already there
 if we could achieve them
 loving our God utterly
 all that we are
 and loving even the stranger,
 our enemy, as ourselves
 
 That tall order
 for the bliss sublime
 no man achieved this
 that is why he came
 that we would be restored
 earning heaven by his sacrifice
