This was a song I quickly wrote up (as in in a day) and recorded for a contest on a Christian Filmmakers website. Someday I may add a bridge to the song (I had to keep the video under 3 minutes for the contest rules at the time) and re-record it into a more finished version; but I think it still is a good song and hope it speaks to you - there is an answer and I believe it is found in Jesus Christ.

Lyrics:

Some like it spicy and some like it sweet
Most would say life's a buffet it's all you can eat
There's no heaven or hell this is the sweet by and by
Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we die
Is this true or could it be a lie

There are banners that promise you'll find your true love
All your wishes are granted click on the picture above
There was a fella named Joseph tempted like me and you
He ran away from temptation and kept his virtue
Was this the right or the wrong thing to do?

[Chorus]
Is there an answer to how we should live
Is there a God who'll forget and forgive
Did Jesus suffer and die in my place
Did His blood have the power to erase
All my sins, and wipe the tears from my face
Is this amazing grace?

Some would say there's no meaning but what you impart
You're not sinful, you're basically good in your heart
Is it true there's no God there's no eternal plan?
Or is this deception just like the fall of man
To question if I can't or I can? [chorus]
