Gone in an instant
Nearby or distant
Happen so fast
Only memories last
It seems a dream
Or nightmare’s scream
Unborn never breathe
A child too soon leave
A youth in their prime
Runs out of time
Young adult taken
Feel heartache forsaken
Parent no longer near
Who offers advice to steer
Elderly wear thin so frail
Just give out a heart fail
Are you lost in despair
When life just isn’t fair
How can I understand
All I know HE has a plan
Trust in JESUS through trials
Keep in touch all the while
Get through it no matter
Stay closer rather than scatter
Hold on to the Lifeline
Faith, hope, and love find
You’re alive now for a reason
Even if it may be only a season
You’re time too will come
When it does go to HIS Kingdom
Only if you believe on the LORD
HE bought what money couldn’t afford
A room just for you better than a mansion
No more fear, pain, sickness, death fathom
You brought near by HIS blood essence
Don’t give in to suicide; await HIS Presence
For there is great reward to persevere and endure
More than a conqueror overcome severe until secure
One day forevermore eternity into later reunion
No longer daily uncertainty into greater communion
Where the end is not the end only buffering
Accept there will be an end to lonely suffering
Into new beginnings Rock of Salvation’s war scars underpinnings
With thanksgivings lock in ovations for Morningstar’s winnings
Open wide HIS gates for those who walk the straight and narrow
Broken stride awaits body brand new walk in strength beyond marrow
Dry as desert desolate come alive HE will deliver again
By Living Water treasured activate dive in HIS river to mend
Renews mind to be sound, clear, instill with peace
Redeems heart to freely pound no fear beyond downhill ceased
Restores soul to be found appear new will lease
Replenishes inside gracefully abound, sincere, day to day still increased
Refreshes spirit bountifully surround, near, fulfilled, released
Remains HE will be to the end found even until after deceased…
