Man's Life Flashes Before Him - Psalm 103: 15,16
The days of a man seem so few
life before their eyes just goes
a flower full of colourful beauty
so glorious indeed as all knows
The life of a man starts one day
before he knows life is all gone
so important indeed to use it well
for the world offers a big con
A worthwhile purposeful life
is found only in God's plan
abiding in Him obediently faithful
this is the whole duty of man
Remember when the wind comes along
it's force powerfully blows it all away
man's life flashes indeed before him
then it's gone having not another day
(quote: "When we have someone pass away most of us shiver to think their place will be forgotten"
Psalm 103:15-16 (KJV)
15. As for man his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more)
