The First Thing I Remember When The World Ends
When the world ends
the first thing I will remember
is that I can't take my riches with me
my awards and accolades will all evaporate
every title I had ever held in my lifetime
whether it is being a daughter, a sister,
a tourguide, an ambassador or a leader
will be eradicated like thistles in a garden
but recieving the Crown of Life
and being at home with my Lord
will be my greatest reward
sweeter than anything this world
has ever offered to me
