A Poem For Him

Money in the Millions upon Millions will come and eventually go.
What we have in God & Christ will last, and the world does not yet know.

Bringing Glory to God with a life of earnest prayers, and service to him through and through,
This is really our true life on earth and the task we must do.

Christ, this great mystery of God, and the forgiveness of all sin,
Love, trust and faith in his Holy Blood, with wholehearted pursuit of this I can win.

So power, friends, homes, family, even material wealth are all good when things are straight,
But a life completely devoted to God is what is lasting, good, and great;

This Hope is Holy, it is precious, and it fills all voids with the treasure of Christ for us his seeds,
Truly these are the things, which are Godly, powerful, and persistent commitment to them is what will fulfill our every need.
