If
someone passes me by, and doesn't speak,
in
a few years, what will it matter?
If
I sometimes cry because I had a bad week,
in
a few years, what will it matter?
If
I trip and hurt myself, because I missed the door ...
Of
a vase falls off a shelf, and becomes a mosaic on the floor ...
If
I lose everything because my house burned down ...
If
I sing and pray, or if I smile or frown ...
In
a few years (or less), what will it matter?
If
things go well for days, no matter what I do ...
If
I am daily blessed, and feel I'm born anew ...
So
what befalls me, physically, for good or bad while here on earth,
It's
how I've acted, what I've done, that's the thing that has some worth.
That's
what matters ...
God's
gift for me is salvation. I know I'm saved by grace,
but
I still have to reach and take it - I have to run the race.
How
I've treated others, the road that I have trod ...
And
if I've studied the Bible, and if I've obeyed God ...
That's
all that will matter ...
