Only a Heartbeat Away

Verse 1
This may be the most important song you’ll ever hear,
A whisper to your heart, a truth that’s crystal clear.
Jesus gave His life for you, He took your place in love,
He died upon a cross to bring you hope from up above.

Chorus
So open up your heart today, let mercy wash your sin away,
Call upon His name and say, “Jesus, I choose to believe.”
Don’t let this moment slip away —
You’re only a heartbeat away
From stepping into eternity.

Verse 2
He offers you forgiveness, a gift you cannot earn,
A promise of forever if you’ll only turn.
He calls you from the darkness to walk within His light,
He’s reaching out to save you — choose His love tonight.

Bridge
Every soul will live forever — one of two eternities,
Life with Christ in endless joy, or lost in misery.
If you choose to reject Him, you’ll face eternity in flames,
In anguish, far from mercy — but His love now calls your name.
His grace is reaching out tonight —
Just step into His light.

Chorus
So open up your heart today, let mercy wash your sin away,
Call upon His name and say, “Jesus, I choose to believe.”
Don’t let this moment slip away —
You’re only a heartbeat away
From stepping into eternity.

Today is the day of salvation.
Don’t put off your decision,
as you’re only a heartbeat away from eternity.
Now is the time.
Choose Jesus today and believe!

Chorus (reprise)
So open up your heart today, let mercy wash your sin away,
Call upon His name and say, “Jesus, I choose to believe.”
Don’t let this moment slip away —
You’re only a heartbeat away
From stepping into eternity.

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
