May 6, 1998

on occasion we would wish to ask

why

of God

and have Him answer and calm our fear

of not knowing

we too seldom realize that we shall

live

with Him

in blessed peace and never a tear

for the conflict

which in earth’s life did tear and abrade

faith

with death

yet could not tear the child away

from the Father

who is Life, in His our own life holds

fast

in Love

saints saved for His land of life

beyond time’s end
