Eternal Life

Sometime I'll reach my final day When life within must ebb away The years on earth God gave to me Will become a fleeting memory. The seasons have just drifted by So many moons have graced the sky Whilst winter's honeysuckle bloom Filled the air with rich perfume. I have seen small babies born, Life's miracles with each new morn Earthly joy for man and wife... The meaning of 'eternal life'. With the heartache, pain and fear I have shed an unwanted tear But my world became a fairer place When love did my soul embrace. Now is the time for thanks to flow For the wonderful glory here below For glistening sea and azure sky And heaven's paradise waiting on high.
