Sunset of Life
The sunset of life has many hues
Your family, friends and neighbors
You have no regrets; you’ve paid your dues
Completed a life time of labors
The light grows dim, slowly fades away
Those that are closest are near
No longer in this world must you stay
You face what’s next without fear
Your passage into another world
A pleasure you should savor
Those gone before now are unfurled
Old family, friends, and neighbors
From that sunset on the other side
Springs an eternal sunrise
Again with loved ones you will abide
God’s love for you never dies
