The Last Word

What shall it be-
The last word…ever to be spoken
What shall be said to you or me?

Will it be whispered or sung?
Will it be proclaimed to the angels or shared
Out loud with everyone?

Is it etched in my heart already...
Have I treasured what I've heard-
Trusting in the faith and perfect work of
Jesus Christ – also known by our family
As, The Word ?

Long ago …what was spoken and said –
Now written in Bibles -Christ’s words in red
For those seeking, for those who believe
And gladly receive the truth of our Saviour.

Can one know the last word
And not yet know the last day
Will I know my last word,
What it is I shall say?

To the Creator of all things
To the showers of righteousness He alone brings
To the One who brought me through His Door
I say now and always to my gracious God , “Thank you and Amen”.

“Amen” as it is written – the last word in The Book
He placed in my hands and heart in this life –
that from His love and His Word …I shall never depart.
Amen.
