Everybody Else's Echoes
It's such an interesting thought
what'll people say when I'm gone
their thoughts about me when here
they didn't feel that it was on
So let's say I'm gone to a higher abode
then folk can be free to speak their mind
some would think he was really weird
spoke very little words were hard to find
Hopefully, they were others different
think this gulf was patient and kind
though he liked being alone also too
but most folks looked as if blind
All recognised that this guy had faith
a keen Bible lover of God's truth
had a great desire to walk with God
found often in his reader's booth
Hopefully, these voices cast echoes
of the person, I truly desired to show
may I've been an encouragement to some
aid them to follow Jesus onward and grow
