One Heart Beat

In a heart beat,
A single cell becomes a soul.
In a heart beat,
Ingnorance becomes "I know!"

In a heart beat,
You feel wonderfully alive.
In a heart beat,
Your health suddenly declines.

In a heart beat,
A soul that's lost is found,
The heart that truly loves,
Offers vitality that astownds.

In one last heart beat,
You slip from life to death,
You'll stand brfore your God,
Earthly actions you must confess.
