Death's Door

I'm not a young man any more 
Getting closer to Death's door
Many times I've had my doubts
What life is all about

Some days it's hard go get out of bed
More days behind me than ahead
I've decided to worry less and pray more
Before I pass through Death's door

I have a lot to be thankful for
Even though I'm closer to Death's door 
What caused anger once before
Doesn't matter any more
