Another Poem by the Parson
DR. JERRY A. JONES
Every road, or path that we travel,
will certainly have an end;
It may be over the next hill,
Or just around the next bend…
WE DO NOT KNOW!
Every song must surely end,
The final verse and chorus sung;
Sooner or later in the arena called life,
The final bell must be rung…
THIS WE KNOW!
Every life will one day have an end,
Each must breathe his or her last breath,
The final curtain will be rung down –
And life will end in death.
WE KNOW ‘TIS SO!
‘Tis then that each must face the Judge,
the Lord, God’s Only Son;
And each will be asked to give account
For the deeds on earth they’ve done…
WHAT THEN?
So, since none of us knows where or when
The road of life for us will end;
It seems to make a lot of sense
To turn to God, confess our sin…
FOR IT IS FOR SURE THAT EVERY
ROAD HAS AN END.
