Better Get Right Today This Is One of My Fondest Prayers
" It's humid outside
It has just rained
Sitting in my car
In the cemetery
Between my job
I've just written
a poem about my brother...
And his family
Funny it's also
My father's birthday
Yet he too is deceased and gone
WOW I am I'm full of Glee. (Why you see---)
Although most all my loved ones are dead and gone
It's the Jesus around me and in me that keeps me going on I'll be strong!
I still have my three children and two grandchildren
My wife is gone her parents too
Even one of her sister also passed and my in-laws too
I celebrate their life by saying this today
Better get right before death comes my (our)way
We all need to kneel down and pray
Oh I miss the physical ones but yet they're living on
Eternally !
I pray that they're in the arms of Jesus
This I must believe and when my time come
When I'm laid in a box
I hope people remember me
I hope they think of me a lot
Mercy Lord !
Hallelujah!!!
This is one of my fondest prayer "
