He Lived Till He Died
This is an obvious thing to say
well of course this is always the case
you are alive till the day you die
so certain for all the human race
Now let us ponder this for awhile
behind these words lies a mystery
because there's more than meets the eye
looking back on all of their history
For many live lives seem dead
their actions amount to such nothings
in their life never amounting to be
little knots instead of something
At one time show such promise
expecting to hit such dizzy heights
but disappointment was their cue
as dimmed down because sad lights
Trust in God and you really live
resurrection life brings true reward
live eternally in God's presence
holding on for the Lord's heavenly cord
(" He lived till he died"
I came across this quote on a park bench seat on holiday recently in the English lakes and it made me think about this choice of words is so profound that I have written this piece bringing out my own thoughts about it. )
