The Pharisee and the tax man

The Pharisee and the tax man went to God’s house one day
The Pharisee went to brag, but the tax man went to pray

Which one will you be, my brother,
on that coming judgment day?
Which one will you be, my friend,
when the clouds are rolled away?

The Pharisee told how lucky God was to have him on His side.
The tax man went off by himself, like a baby he cried.

Which one will you be, my brother,
on that coming judgment day?
Which one will you be, my friend,
when the clouds are rolled away? 

The Pharisee left God’s house that day
still filled with sinful pride.
The Bible tells us, when the tax man left,
he walked away justified.

Which one will you be, my brother,
on that coming judgment day?
Which one will you be, my friend,
when the clouds are rolled away?
