Simply walk the Walk

I saw him approaching my house,
Where he gently knocked on the door,
I didn't have to turn the music off.
For, I was playing Christian music galore.

I didn't check the magazines.
'Good Old Days' was on the table.
'Field and Stream' was by the door
And the Christian Network was on cable.

I didn't check my appearance.
I'd been up and dressed for over an hour.
I didn't wonder if my house was clean.
It smelled fresh as a springtime flower.

It was then that I realized,
You don't have to talk the talk.
When you're sure you're going to Heaven,
You simply walk the walk.

I answered the door with confidence.
You never know when the Lord will be there.
But, if you simply walk the walk,
You'll always have glory to share.
