Yet [*/+/^] : Words To Be Read Before I Die, 2; After Luke 10:42, Eph. 1:4, And Heb 11:21

[After Luke 10:42, Eph. 1:4, And Heb 11:21]


Thank You, Lord:  that You put Your Word into my heart;

that You chose even such as me for that Good Part.

And, in me, even me, You made it thrive;

through death's shadow it will keep me alive;

nor need I fear that I will not survive.

Death has been conquered, nor can ever strive

or grapple; and never, ever, can displace

Scriptural Faith founded on Christ's Resurrection,.

in which I am included through believing connection

that leads me starward from each age and place.

His blessings stand good for all time and through all space:


the Joy of Biblical Faith, the Common Salvation,

which is and shall always be my soul's chiefest exultation

among Christ's redeemed---that great congregation;

as well as my prayers' starward inclination. 


Let these poems praise You, Christ; and unceasingly,

I will declare my gratitude most worshipfully;

freed of sin's contamination,

forever through eternity. 

 

J'n'ry9th
