Eternal Hope?

Rated: E · Poetry · Spiritual · #2360506

Can we be sure, that we are saved, before we stand before the Lord of Glory?

The old man thought his living days stood strong.
Repentance wrest his life from sin, and still
he faced his death with Joy's most certain song,
while nagging doubts now plagued at his own will.

"
I chose the narrow path, and served with vim!
Accosted men, whose souls were still unchanged!
I lived each moment, only, all for Him!
Eschewed the cursings of the hearts deranged!
"

"
My friend, where is your wedding robe for here?
I never knew you. Find your place in fear.
