Perfume of Life
There is an open door for me,
In the Lord capable to see;
That I have been doing my best,
And my spirit has had no rest.
For I am committing no crime,
By praising Jesus all the time;
As it keeps my faith feeling strong,
With praising Him all the day long.
It is making it very clear,
In always being filled with fear;
Preserving to honor and laud,
The Almighty Lord our God.
No longer am I in bondage,
To the measure of the knowledge;
Acquired from this place called earth,
Since I experienced rebirth.
We are really a sweet perfume,
For Jesus the Christ to consume;
In getting our salvation,
Prior to the mass destruction.
Because for some it will be death,
Burning sulfur within each breath;
While others with no more strife,
With perfume of eternal life.
