POEM
It’s nice to talk about heaven

Muriel Larson

It’s nice to talk about heaven,
But have you had the new birth?
It’s nice to sing about heaven,
But what are you doing on earth?
Oh, it’s good to talk and it’s good to sing,
But do you to your words some action bring?
It’s nice to talk about heaven,
But what are you doing on earth?

It’s nice to talk about Jesus,
But are you sorry for sin?
It’s nice to sing about Jesus,
But are you living for Him?
Oh, it’s good to talk and it’s good to sing,
But do you to your words some action bring?
It’s nice to talk about Jesus,
But are you living for Him?

Muriel Larson lives in Greenville, S.C. These words are excerpted from a longer song.
