Promised Life

Promised Life

He that believes in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. John 11:25

The Promised Life

When you do hear that I'm gone

And left this troubled world below

Don't you believe that I'm dead

Although the evidence will show

I'll be alive more than before

while my earthly vessel will decay

I will be on top of everything

Being far from dead in any way

While others may mourn and cry

Don't you be sad, but rejoice

I'll be promoted by God Himself

For I've responded to His voice

I may leave some of you behind

As I'll take orders from the King

Forever I'll be in His company

Rejoicing, while Hallelujah I'll sing

I won't be dead, or cold as stone

For I will live for evermore

Death has lost its painful sting

Therefore, I'll continue to soar

My last enemy I'll overcome

As I depart from this globe

When entering everlasting bliss

God will hand me a brand new robe

No, I won't be dead, dear friend

For He that has the Son hath life

The grave is just a stepping stone

Which puts an end to earthly strife

When you read my name, somewhere

On a long list of the dead

Remember, God keeps His promise

And gives LIFE for death instead

For anyone whom upon Jesus calls

And accepts Him as Savior and Lord

Will never see death, neither decay

But LIFE, according to His word
