Final Transition
When my eyes grow dim and my legs are weak,
when I can’t hear and my mouth can’t speak,
I wonder what I will see through these eyes of faith
as I think about what awaits at the end of my race.
Will my soul sense my stilled legs dance as never before?
Will I leap with joy as I see angels galore?
Will I hear the prayers of many as I am called home
to Abba my Father, up to His heavenly throne?
My prayer is to sing always even with a failing heart,
knowing it is only from here that I shall depart.
I now rejoice in God’s promise that I will see His face,
and have peace in knowing He has prepared my place.
But will my soul really be so quiet when my end is near?
Will I be excited or will I show fear?
Will I be in perfect peace because I believe
that Christ has prepared a place especially for me?
Now as I wait and sometimes think of my final transition,
I can rest in knowing it will end in all glorious perfection!
