Life After Death

Life after death, is it only a dream?
Or did Jesus die so we could be redeemed?
What is the answer to this great mystery?
We must just look back at our grand history!

Jesus woke Lazarus after four days,
And all the onlookers were oh so amazed!
He gave us a sample of what he will do;
The dead will rise, that is the clue.

When his thousand year reign soon does begin,
Our cherished loved ones will come back again!
We'll then have a second opportunity to show
Our love for God and His Kingdom uphold.

"Thy Kingdom come", we so often pray.
That God's will on earth be done, we do say.
This will soon happen, of that we are sure!
Jesus is the answer, He is the cure.

(Revelation chapters 20 and 21)
