V1:
I asked the man have you made your plans for heaven
He said I have no guarantee to make it through
I said to save your soul on what are you depending
He said I'm trying to do the best that I can do
V2:
He began to share how he'd been fair to his neighbors
Seemed He always had a helping hand to lend
But nowhere was there mention of a savior
No payment or provision for his sin
V3:
So I said dear sir, may I share for just a minute
how I got my guarantee to make it through
I first confessed that I was just a sinner
Cause that my friend was the best that I could do.
Chorus:
Yes the best that I could do was trust in Jesus
The best that I could do was call him friend
Noble deeds of mine couldn't satisfy the debt I owe to Him
So the best that I could do was just
Believe that Jesus came and died to satisfy the debt I owe to Him
V4:
Oh my friend, have you done the best that you can do
Would you trust Him now before it is too late
When we're at our best, we still are less than right and true
The debt we owe is a debt we cannot pay
