You Won't Attend Your Own Funeral

Have you ever thought about this? there's so many things to consider here you'll not know who'll be there or not whether any shows emotion even a tear You will have left the scene of time no longer to be ruled by the clock having left this body of yours behind dust to dust, ashes to ashes never to walk Now let's consider this funeral of yours the attendance may be single figures or less but who knows it could be a pack out the clergyman's word hopefully would bless Those left behind have it all to do arrange your funeral, pensions and all of that trust they will mourn your final passing having memories of your life from the start But you won't be there ever again you'll be in eternity way out there either in God's presence or farther away today you can come to God in humble prayer (Have you ever thought about your funeral? I just thought none of us would attend our funeral which is quite a thought, so this is my thoughts on this event. )
