The Film
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Calm down now if your hands are clean
But if they’re not be worried
Jesus Christ is on his way
He is the Judge and jury
There is no need to plead your case
The LORD has seen the movie
Your whole life was all caught on film
I hope you think that’s groovy
I don’t mean to needle you
But its all on the record
The movie has a sound track
You can listen to the record
Jesus heard it; he was there
Its written in the book
God is watching everything
He knows if you’re a crook
You can’t escape the judgment
You will stand before the throne
I hope that I will see you
When I get back to my home
