Life is a Ballgame (Torbjorn) Life is a ballgame Bein' played each day Life is a ballgame Everybody can play Jesus is standin' at home plate Waitin' for you there Life is a ballgame, but You've got to play it fair.(I use this 1st verse as a chorus) 1st base is temptation, The 2nd base is sin Third base tribulation If you pass you can make it in Ol' man Solomon is the umpire And Satan is pitchin the game He'll do his best to strike you out Keep playin' just the same. Daniel was the first to bat You know he prayed three times a day When Satan threw him a fast ball You know he hit it anyway Job came in the next inning Satan struck him in every way, But job he hit a home run And came on in that day. Prayer will be your strong bat To hit at Satan's ball And when you start to swing it You've got to give it your all in all Faith will be your catcher On him you can depend And Jesus is standing at Home Plate Just waitin for you to come in. Moses is standin' on the side lines Just waitin to be called And when he parted the Red Sea He gave Christ is all-in-all John came in the last inning When the game was almost don Then God gave John a vision And he knew he'd all ready won.
