And here flow out the songs of praise!
some stand. some don't. and I? I write.
I scribble down these words... broken fragments of a bleeding heart,
and I watch.
I watch the minutes pass...
I watch the hours pass...
and then I realize: I will not be young forever.
No, I won't even be forever.
And as I sit and watch them praise
as He inspires these sadder words... or, more thoughtful words,
I die.
Not quickly, no... Oh no. I may have many years, though, I also may not.
But me, when I finally leave,
when God calls me home,
I will sit beside Him
and cleanse my feet in His eternal waters,
and I will think back on times such as these and know one thing:
I lived my life to the fullest,
because I lived in God,
and He made me full.
Praise be to the One who looked me in the eye and saw my heart,
and loved me nonetheless...
