Here's another poem I wrote on my mission:
Reflection on Eternal Progression
Have I today, lived to my Best--
Done what I can, to pass this Test?
Have I been Kind and Brave and Strong,
And given service, all day long?
Have I preserved-- pure Hands, pure Heart,
Done what it takes to stand Apart?
And with a laugh and then a smile,
Done what I Should, my extra mile?
Can I say now I'm Good in deed,
and then in word wish all Godspeed?
Have I stood firm in what means most--
The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost?
If I should fail these Three I know,
My life falls cold as drifted Snow,
No more to find that Golden Rest,
No hearth nor home to ease my test.
Yet if away I flee or fly,
There still is Hope before I die--
If home I turn on bended knee,
If Him I give Humility,
I'll find again that blissful Peace,
My doubts and fears and cares Release,
No more to spend my life in sin,
But Home to dwell, in Love, again.
