Tie the Strings to my Life, My Lord..


Tie the Strings to my Life,
My Lord,Then, I am ready to go!

So I shall never fall -
For we must ride to the Judgment,
And it's partly, down Hill..

But never I mind the steeper,
And never I mind the Sea,
Held fast in Everlasting Race,
By my own Choice, and Thee -

Goodbye to the Life I used to live,
And the World I used to know,
And kiss the Hills, for me, just once…
Then -- I AM READY TO GO!

She brought the roses in, & then just looked at them in ...
