Life's Worth

God's gift*
life's lift...

     strength's zest
     life blest...

          love's might
          life's light...

               grace-birth
               life's worth...

                    hope flows
                    life glows.

*Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
