I walk up to the casket
of a friend
Whose life and loves I
barely even knew
And as I view his body
at its end
A stranger comes and
stands beside me there;
His smile is warm, his
eyes are full of light.
He says "Here lies
a man that really cared,
Who always strove to
treat his neighbor right.
He came across as
strict but ever fair.
No, as a man he was not
sinless pure,
But he was intimate
with God in prayer;
He loved the Savior
deeply to be sure.
He has a life eternal with the Lord:
His faith in Christ was where his wealth was stored."
~~~~~~~~~~~
And
this is life eternal,
that
they might know Thee the only true God,
and
Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
John 17:3 KJV
