Look Ahead
When breathless pain of sorrow
Steals the joys of each tomorrow
Look ahead.
Echoes peeling...of life or dying
What hope then? It's mystifying
Life's pain sometimes is crucifying...
Remember then, Christ's rectifying
Look ahead.
God and Father,
Of the living
Not the dead
His home is filled with life,
All sorrows shed
The flesh grows old
But I've been told
The Spirit's flight to paths of Gold
Leads to a Home where they behold
The Father's Wonderous Place
And our Savior full of Grace
Way 'cross the slough of deep despond
There is a joyous land beyond
Where life is real
Gone tears and dread
Where only words of love are said
---->
Ahead
When the spirit fly's away
Upon that set appointed day
And Earthbound hearts feel ripped
and shred
Of course it's hard to
Look ahead
That empty chair.... it isn't fair
Grey the day with deep despair
Now....Focus... Heaven's 'Stead
Appears Ahead
When breathless pain of sorrow
Steals the joys of each tomorrow
In life's pain or sorrows dread
Depetaled rose....thorns for a bed
Christ wore that crown upon His head
And for His own, His paths have lead
So that we
Sisters and Brothers
Look ahead.
Hebrews 12:2
2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. KJV
John 14:1-4
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. KJV
Ecclesiastes 12:6-7
Remember your Creator before the silver cord is [a]loosed,
Or the golden bowl is broken,
Or the pitcher shattered at the fountain,
Or the wheel broken at the well.
7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was,
And the spirit will return to God who gave it. NKJV
