The Great Promise

Where have they gone, does life go on, or do we just cease to be.

This life is hard, no matter who you are, it’s not always as it seems.

We move forward through it all, some leave, others come to be.

This is life, this is the journey we’re on, live, love, forgive, believe.

In time, when time is no more, we will understand everything. 

Why we were born, why we laughed, why we cried, rich and poor.

Why we suffered it all, why we dreamed, kept the faith, believed.

On that glorious day, free from the pain, and we are together again. 

We will understand, free from misery, in total joy never to end.

The past forgotten, all things will be new, and we will forever be.

The Great Promise. Keep the faith, live, love, forgive, believe!
