He will swallow up death forever; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the LORD has spoken. Isaiah 25:8
From the moment of birth
a destiny hanges over us
the finality of death
awaits every one of us
And in a mortal life
we must find greater meaning
With the inhale of each breath
there is another second's existence
but the inevitability of death
keeps us pressing on for purpose
And in tenuous life
we know a deeper tugging
We know we're made for bigger stuff
than eating, sleeping, breathing, sighing
these things are not enough
to stop us wondering what's after dying
And confronting end of life
we see God's hand reaching
There is a promise so astounding...
that death itself will have a death...
that we trust in God's amazing
saving faith, our life, and our depth
The hope of eternal life
swallows death with eternity
God will wipe away all tears
that come to us when death parts us
He will eradicate all our fears
forever finding life given to us
The Creator of our life
will forever live with us... rejoicing
