Should I be blessed a century
Before I am a memory
As on the ancient history
I reflect what used to be
May I have no misery
Or be abject to sympathy
For all I did not do or see
But may I pass on happily
Knowing Love to be the key
In living out this mystery
Of life in its simplicity
Food to those who are hungry
Water to all who are thirsty
Clothes to the ones who are needy
Shelter to all who are weary
Winning the battle against me
Giving of myself completely
Acting, not waiting passively
Fighting against the Enemy
And finding all peace in Christ only
When I'm rid of mortality
Worshiping God eternally
Lacking the world's asperity
I'll look to this life and truly
Know Papa had the victory!
