Nothing less

 

 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall be with his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

(Revelation 21 vs 3-4)

          

A day in this verse, every thing will come to a final full stop. The curtains of this phase of life will be drawn paving way for another chapter that is without end. In a moment, it will become as if it wasn’t. Social status, political pedigree, intellectual prowess and financial strength will matter no more. Only our works here on earth will stand. Those that remain steadfast till that day from now, irrespective of their trials and travails that have left some in a state of tears, pains will laugh last.

 

 NOTHING LESS

 I have sojourned in that part of life

Where the so-called friend can live

in a dream of thrusting his knife

 

I have known that kind of world

Where the streets are forged

With all manner of mud

 

I have seen those kinds of people

That know nothing but to wriggle

And get away with it in a twinkle

 

I have been acquainted with that master

Who dreams to see you lather

And tells you is for your better

 

But I know about a place

Where I shall never find these

And life is eternal with Christ and nothing less.
