Salvation Divine

Uncategorized 1 Minute

This poem I read

 at the end of my life…

 

As I bid you adieu

 from the joy and the strife

 

A verse filled with hope,

 and with love from within

 

To carry inside you,

 my song on the wind

  

I’ll try not to preach,

 as others have done

 

But rather beseech you,

 your songs yet unsung

 

To love with the strength

 that’s God given inside

 

And to love even more,

 in an unending rhyme

 

These words are my gift,

 I bequeath you today

 

In the hope you’ll remember

 what I last had to say

 

For I loved you all deeply,

 your kindness I sought

 

And remember now sweetly,

 those blessings you brought

 

So I leave you this morning,

 and bid you farewell

 

I leave you together,

 pledged hearts here to dwell

 

All strength in your sharing,

 my love to remind

 

Your redemption awaits

 —its salvation divine
