Evergreening Grace for Deciduous Faith
I ponder, lying pale upon my bed;
my head a 'roaring deep in notions... whys.
My thinking moves to plans for my demise
with comfort from my Lord in what He said -
I go to build your palace overhead;
just keep believing, death will loose the lies
of those who groan with transitory eyes.
Take note: I grant relief to you instead.
This body’s death transports my soul to God
and lets the dread of evanescence flee.
My faith persists, like leaves, although life dims;
God’s evergreening grace is no facade.
My hope is anchored on my Savior’s tree;
His resurrection weakened Satan’s limbs.
