You got to choose you got to make up your mind
Cause you can't go both ways at the same time
You got to pick up on one leave the other behind
And not choosing is choosing of a different kind
God told Adam not to eat of that tree
But he did and made a mess of things for you and for me
God told Abe to go check out the land
And now he has children like the stars and the sand
Lot told his wife not to look back or halt
But she did and she turned into a pillar of salt
You got to choose you got to make up your mind
Cause you can't go both ways at the same time
You got to pick up on one and leave the other behind
And not choosing is choosing of a different kind
Jake made Esau a hot bowl of stew
And Esau said yum the birthright goes to you
God told Pharaoh let my people go
And Egypt was destroyed when Pharaoh said no
God told Balaam not to curse the twelve tribes
And he got himself rebuked by his donkey's own jibes
You got to choose you got to make up your mind
Cause you can't go both ways at the same time
You got to pick up on one leave the other behind
And not choosing is choosing of a different kind
Josh said me and mine are servants of the lord
And God gave him youth and victory with his sword
Ruthie turned to God from idols of stone
And God gave her rest and a son and a home
Solomon was warned not to wander from the way
But he married foreign girls and they led him astray
You got to choose you got to make up your mind
Cause you can't go both ways at the same time
You got to pick up on one leave the other behind
And not choosing is choosing of a different kind
Eli stood up to the prophets of Baal
And God showed his power when the prophets all failed
Neb said bow or in the furnace you go
But God saved the three who had the guts to say no
The question today is Jesus the Lord
Is he God like he said or a lunatic fraud
You got to choose you got to make up your mind
Cause you can't go both ways at the same time
You got to pick up on one leave the other behind
And not choosing is choosing of a different kind
