Why are you afraid of me?
Each day you dread
that I may visit you,
Every illness flashes me
across your unchecked thoughts,
Everyday you are anxious
that I may call you.
But you don’t recall
that I will put an end
to the sorrows of this world,
That I am a ferry which
will take you onboard,
To the eternal Shore
of peace.
I can carry you to see
your Saviour face to face.
When your Father summons,
I will move you to your
forever Home.
Am I not beautiful then?
Am I not your friend?
