ONE FOOT IN THE DOOR
Dear Lord in the sky, don't leave me down here
I always did love you, I want that made clear
I NEVER DID LEAVE YOU, I LOVE YOU NOW MORE
I want you to know I kept one foot in the door
Oh yes I did stray out in Satan's front yard
And looked at his glamor and still said unscarred
I didn't once plan to leave you for good
Just one little sample, and yet understood
That I would be back , not to stray anymore
I always kept one foot in the door
Dear Lord in the sky ,don't leave me down here
The rocks are now falling, my heart's full of fear
The angels don't see me , they are passing me by
They're not taking to you up there in the sky
Oh, please don't pass me by, my faith was so poor
But I always kept one foot in the door
There goes my mother, up in the sky
And sister and brother , Oh please hear my cry
There faces are shining , there arms open wide
They're looking at Jesus , the one I crucified
I only wanted life's pleasures just once more
And I always kept one foot in the door
But were is my Dad I know he's not lost
He always told me stay true at all cost
Did he really not make it , Did he loose his way
Did Satan enslave him will he have to stay
OH now I can see him , he's running about
He's calling my name , so loudly he shouts
Here Dad , please help me , this rock's on my leg
I'll be good forever so humbly I beg
But he doesn't see me or here my loud cry
He's frantickly searching , please don't say good-bye
The sun is so hot Dad , I'm starting to faint
Oh if I'd only listened Now I'd be a saint
The earth is now moving , the winds , they loud roar
Please, Lord remember I kept one foot in the door
My Dad's heart is breaking . there's tears in his eye's
His pleading's are over , it's time for good-byes
He can't bear to leave me ,down here all a lone
When Satan , and his angels , this dark earth to room
My fun and my pleasures aren't fun anymore
It's to late , even though I kept one foot in the door
I see my Dad rising , he's floating on high
He's meeting my family up there in the sky
They're all with Jesus eternal life starting
Never again will there be a sad parting
I scream, Dad don't leave me , but it's over and done
I've lost heaven forever Satan has won
If I'd only known , that Satan kept score
He knew I was lost , with one foot in the door
I wrote this a few years back--Lloyd
