One cannot bank on duration of life

We do not have control

Yet, one thing we can be sure thereof

Is the destiny of our souls

It doesn't matter how or when

We all shall physically die

A month, a year or maybe ten

Death is ever nearby

The Son of God who took our place

Saving us from bondage and sin

Waits for us to embrace His grace

And take our place with Him

To know the Savior in personal bond

To let Him prepare us now

For eternity's promise just beyond

Should make us humbly bow

Oh! The glory that waits for those

Who give themselves to Him

No more sorrow, pain or woe

Just peace and joy within

I'm crossing over to the other side

To meet Him face to face

And in His bosom I'll always reside

Within His saving grace
