No Plus Ones for Heaven

There’s no plus ones for heaven –
Each entry stands alone
And those who wish to enter
Must each secure their own.

No matter how I’d like to
Ensure you have a place,
You must apply directly
To have a share of grace.

But God’s so rich in mercy
That all who come receive,
And all who ask are given
His gift when they believe.

So friend, I now invite you
To come above with me
For Jesus gives salvation
That’s lasting, sure, and free.

And if you’re bound for glory,
Then won’t you go invite
Some other souls to join you?
Let’s fill His house of light.
