And Do It God's Way
(To the tune of "I Did It My Way" by Frank Sinatra)

Now, when the end is near,
And you must face the final curtain,
My friend, He's always there,
He'll take you home, of that I'm certain,
Just live your life for Him,
And you will travel Heaven's highway,
So, follow in His steps,
And do it God's way.

Regrets may follow you,
But He can turn them into blessing,
He'll make your life brand new,
To face the future without guessing,
Your plans may go astray,
So trust in Him, instead of your way,
And you will never miss,
By doing it God's way.

There may be times, I'm very sure,
When you will fall for Satan's lure,
But through temptation, trust in Him,
And He will pardon ev'ry sin,
Then stand up tall and give your all,
And do it God's way.

So, love and laugh and cry,
And live your life without exception,
And when it's at the end,
You'll take your part in resurrection,
And Jesus, Son of God,
Will meet you there to say "It's okay",
So, give your life to Him,
And do it God's way.

For what is man, that God should care?
And on the cross our burdens bear,
To lift us up, when we are down,
To offer hope so we won't drown,
The Book of Life will show your name,
By doing it God's way.
