Inspired By Saint Paul of Tarsus

In living's realm, it's Christ I find,
In His embrace, my soul aligned.
To die, the gain, a higher plane,
Beyond the mortal, I'll attain.

Transcendent journey, soul's ascent,
Through life and death, my faith unbent.
In Christ's embrace, I find my breath,
In heavenly realms, I'll conquer death.

In every moment, Christ I see,
His love and grace, my sanctuary.
Through life's embrace, my purpose clear,
In death's release, no trace of fear.

For to me, to live as Christ's part,
His guiding light within my heart.
To die, a gain, I shall proclaim,
In Christ's embrace, forever claim.
