"You Knew" by Jim Long 7-17-2011

Upon that which invades life so slow

Its pain and sorrow the weary know

Preceding becomes against the flow

They faithful will willing on the trail go

If it were for what is material and here

Dust overtakes a body it’s trivial, no tear

But the life left behind is a memory clear

If only material gain meaning just mere

Proceed a life venture greatness not you

But with everything within your life true

Unto others you hope not know they do

Never about them is something you knew

Do not despair in your life here and now

Your love for others never throw the towel

In you is something that will provide a how

Advice given proceed ever slow, never fowl

The time at hand of an end can be so near

This is something that one of Christ, no fear

Hold nothing but your love for others dear

The Covent you held will be hold no drear

Within Christ you a new being have grew

Your love has set you above others, True?

It is upon others our fate lies, what we do

Something whispered long ago; you knew
