If
this is the day that I
should meet my Savior
face to face
I
hope that He can say to
me, “My child, you ran
the
good race.
You
told those who didn’t
know Me how they could
be My child
You
helped those sick and
suffering; you went that
extra mile.
You
shared with others what
you had and you were
always kind
You
were always witnessing;
you wanted no one left
behind.
You
comforted those in
sorrow; you prayed for
those still lost
You
tried to be a friend to
all, no matter what the
cost.
You
let My light shine
through you so others
around could see
That
you had something
special, and you told
them it was free.
You
shared the gift of
salvation and they were
soon to agree
They
wanted the joy and peace
you had so they too
could be free.
You
said to them ‘repent
of your sins; ask Jesus
into your heart
He
will change you from
within and into a new
work of art’.
You
told them of the blood I
shed to wash their sins
away
You
told them of eternal
life I planned for them
one day.
My
child, when you stand
before Me on that final
Judgment Day
I’ll
not forget these things
you’ve done; your
crown I’ve laid
away”.
