From our mothers womb came we to this life live three score and ten experience joy and strife Life’s end will come our body will work no more then death is our ultimate our closure of life’s door God’s book tells of judgement asking us for our say if take or reject his love offer will be our word on that day So born to die are we in this life that’s me born to die is God’s son to make God’s salvation done poetgord

A great poem, I was really attracted to the title "Born to die" sometimes I wonder why we were born when someday we have to die but then I say "Cause God Wanted me to be"
