~Coming Soon~

Don't dismay in Heaven, friend,

Far past the sun and moon;

We're here on earth, await our time,

We'll all be coming soon.

When death's dark shades upon us pass

And winds of sorrow blow,

We'll acquiesce to Heaven's call

And leave the world below.

Our Savior waits there as of old

To welcome us to our home.

We're coming soon to that fair land,

And we'll not be alone.

For grace is something to be shared

Among our loved ones here.

We'll speak the word of God's great love

And bring our loved ones near.

And joy will come to all of us

Our tears will flow no more.

We'll have our tears all wiped away

On that eternal shore.

~Sequoia Trees and You~

I look up at the Sequoia

And all I see is you.

Wise and strong for many years,

Just as resilient, too.

Those trees’ve seen it all!

The City of Rome’s beginning

To the end of world wars,

And all of the worlds’ sinning.

They’re just as strong willed,

And are everything I aspire.

There’s no doubt in my mind

That as they thrived in fire,

God thought of their power

When he was creating you,

Giving those you hold dear

An ounce of strength, too.
