One Mans Opinion

Since we are born as sinners,
We will die as sinners.
Our destiny has already been foretold.
What sins will you carry?
And take to your grave
When it’s time to leave this world?
The cause of death will be from that.
And how you choose to live your life
Will determine how fast.

“The Lord works in mysterious ways”,
So I’ve heard people say.
Do you think this could be?
The answer to the mystery
Between life and Death,
And when He comes to collect?
Don’t take my word for it,
See for yourself
-- It’s up to you to evaluate.
You may want to forget
What you might have found
-- Left like me only to speculate.
