WHAT  WILL  I  DO  THAT  WILL  LAST?

By Rev. Dean Beaty   9/4/05

 

Just what will I do in life that will last?

What will men say when my life is past?

Or do I just live for this present day,

While storing up things that will just pass away?

 

The things of this earth, though given by God,

Will all turn to dust, below the green sod.

There’s only one thing that won’t pass away,

The souls of the ones, who pass by your way.

 

Give them the message of God’s love for men.

Of Jesus, God’s son who died for their sin.

He that winneth souls will prove to be wise,

And evermore shine as stars in the skies.

 

The Lord calls each one, to start where they are.

Your Jerusalem is not very far.

For your mission field is not far way.

But made up of those you meet every day.
