More To Life Than Death

Life on the beach, coastal sands of gold,

Death in the desert, a barren wasteland of old;

A drink of water is sweet, when you're going to waste it all,

A breath of fresh air is beautiful, a natural kind of high call.

.

There's more to life than death I told to my friend,

When things seem dark and dismal and near an end;

Choose life over death for every time you have to decide,

The choice is yours no matter the place in which you reside.

.

Is it better to live life in heaven than death always in hell?

Or continuing to reverse the situation and have life in paradise;

No death in hell where you're never happy always at all,

Make the choice of life in heaven and you're always really sure.

.

And the beauty of a second chance when you have earned your fame,

When you go into eternity with only your face and name;

That is if the memories on earth were good you'll have a ticket,

To ride through the sky of life to live in the heavenly plane.

.

But there's more to life than death I said there's more to do and say,

There's plenty left for living in the course of each and every day;

And the beauty is the pleasure and treasure of knowing love,

Where companionship is perfect and a gift from God above.

.

And there's more to life than death for the best is yet to come,

Where people work for nations to intermingle and get on;

So the reason that we live is a sense of community for people,

And marriage and the family wed under each and every steeple.

Signed,

Make it count
