Fear consumed me and I started weeping.
It was then I felt like my son was peeping
Through, the blanket of cover in the heaven above.
For all these long years I have felt his undying love.
These difficult years have been hard I must admit.
Even through all the pain I am not ready to quit.
I feel there is much for me to do on this earth.
In order to achieve a measure of God's worth.
I know that I have a mighty battle ahead,
If it is that wicked cancer that I dread.
Surely with a strong faith and positive attitude.
The prayers on my behalf I accept with deep gratitude.
Whatever comes my way, through thick and thin.
I expect to work with my doctors and win.
But just in case:
If I should lose this race.
Please don't cry for me but remember how I adored
Each, and every one of you for your own accord.
Hopefully then there will be two peeking through the veil.
Watching and hoping that you will always prevail.
And when the time comes we will all be united.
With Jesus at the Lord's table because we were invited.
We will be honored quests who have earned our way.
With God's blessing it will happen someday.
