Shadow of Death - Advent

I saw the shadow

I heard his voice whisper my name

I felt the chill of reality

When your spirit went away

I felt the tears running down my face

I knew he smiled as I felt the sting

My mind raced as I heard his deceit

«Death robbed your family today»

I felt my stomach sink

The PAIN, the SUFFERING

I felt the chill of mortality

As I watched your color fade

I closed my eyes and I saw your face

I felt it burn into my memory

It’s a picture I can never erase

Death took my farther away

Life is short

Death is coming

Life escapes

But death comes hunting

Every man, born of flesh

Will take with him nothing

What he leaves, memories

That will be his LEGACY

Face the trials

Face the pain

Face the fears

Your final breath, drawing near

DEATH IS A THIEF

Death steals for keeps

Death is coming

There is no escape

But death is not your destiny

Death is a thief, death steals for keeps

Life is

Life is short

Death comes hunting

Some men die now, some men die later

Some men live for reasons beneath them

Some live for greater

At the moment of my death

As I take my final breath

Fatality

Not a moment left and I step into eternity

Into eternity

Will I be afraid?

What will await me?

Will I see my father, my family?

This life I lead, will it matter at all

Buried six feet deep, body wrapped in pall

I feel the shadow

It’s coming for me

Do I really believe

Death is not the end
