Notes About The Poem

Unthinkable


If I may serve the One
	Who silenced the darkness,
		Sent peace to the spirit,
			Overcame the fears
		

If I may serve Him,
	The kindness who abides,
		The gentle in my life,
			The music who confides

If I may serve the King
	Who taught me everything,
		To love and hope and believe,
			To never give in to grief

If I may serve my Savior,
	The Master, the Maker,
		The One who is light,
			Who always satisfies

If I may serve Him well,
	Avoiding the fires of hell,
		Because He is my life,
			God’s Son, whose sacrifice…

Gave me a second chance,
	To love, to hope, to trust,
		To know the One who came
			So that my heart would change.

If I may serve Jesus Christ,
	The King, the hope, the light
		I’ll know the meaning of life,
			To glorify the One who decides…

When I’ll begin my new life,
	With Him, in paradise!
Death is not the worst end…
	To die without Jesus,
		would be inconceivable…

To die without Jesus – that is unthinkable!
