One Last Hope and Death Comes--

One last hope... many, many, sins have I done; Those that I've committed; There's no such thing as a little one,(little ones) There's no such thing as grey sins too... Each day every way; I commit myself to say; I'm sorry God for the wrongs, that I've done; And before my last breath; Before I leave this earth; I just want to have just one last hope; cause when death comes; Then death comes In a twinking of an eye; You'll be here by my side; Standing before you on those streets of gold; And I must be true, to the thought of you; Holy father you're my everlastings; Many, times I cried; No necessary reasons why; My last testimony; And when my heart stops and my brain matter rots; I yet, still serve you gladly; And before my last breath; With all that's left; before my last days in this world; I just want to have just one last hope; Then death comes; For to die in Christ is life eternal; There is no death in Him; Forevermore one last hope in Christ is life eternal; There's no death in the Lord; You see Jesus is my one last hope, not death's life; Everlasting life we have in Jesus; 7/17/19 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2019© Written for project North Omaha Writer’s Group assignment 2019©
