Death
By Dennis Dames
We are souls on a journey
…in life so temporary
Making our exclusive marks
…for better or worse
We live for a purpose
…the reward’s on the other side
With our brand of meaning and function
We’ll be known by our works
Heaven’s a destiny
…hell’s a choice
Praise God!
…or otherwise perish
Death’s every second
…it’s real and sure
For me and you
…the judgement await
I want to praise my redeemer
…’til eternity withers
In praise and song
…all the days long
Death is the ultimate transformation
…for the rich and poor
…wise and foolish
…believers and skeptics
…and the heathens and atheists
So, I prepare to meet my maker
…one day at a time
And I’m happy about tomorrow
…as my soul is right in Jesus’ name
Amen.
