After Death Where Will We Be

Firstly let me be clear what I believe
the existence of heaven and hell is real
in the scriptures that's abundantly clear
all have sinned but God's love seeks to heal

Like me you need faith to believe
so let's think of those who can't so they say
they reckon there's no evidence of God
nothing happens for them even if they pray

They see a world of so much trouble
people dying from cancer, it's so unfair
now there's Covid-19 what's it all about?
life goes from birth to death, does God care?

Life goes around all in a spiral
nothing changes much year by year
one certainty death is on the way
can't be avoided as with many a tear

After death where will we be?
it's certain no one know's for sure
but God gifts faith for believers
trust God's word to bring home a cure

( I was asked recently "Do you believe the existence of Heaven and Hell?"
"Are Heaven and Hell the only places to go after life?"
So this is written in response to these questions.)
