The Good in Dying

The Good in Dying
There is good in dying
Dying leads to living
The remission of sins
For our soul’s cleansing
But only the blameless
Life lived in holiness
Foretold by the prophets
Died, yet resurrected
Yes, Jesus gave his life
For you and me, despite
By His grace, we abide
Damnation, we defy
Our death is a sure thing
Our hope is only Him
In heaven we will sing
We put our trust in Him
As we remember now
Christ’s suffering and pain
Let’s lift our hands in praise
For His death, is our gain!

“By His grace, we abide
Damnation, we defy”
I love that line. Nicely done sir. Good thoughts for this time of year.

Thanks Jed … definitely great to be reminded of simple truths that we often times forget.
