OUT OF THIS LIFE
Out of this life I shall never take
Things of silver and gold I make, All that I cherish and hoard away
After I leave on earth must stay.
Though I have toiled for a painting rare To hang on my wall, I must leave it there.
Though I call it mine and boast its worth,
I must give it up when 1 quit this earth.
All that I gather and all that I keep,
I must leave behind when I fall asleep.
And I wonder, often, just what shall I own
In that other life when I pass alone. What shall He find and what shall He
see
In that soul that answers the call for me:
Shall the great Judge learn, when my task is through
That my soul had gathered some riches, too?
Or shall at the last, it be mine to find,
That all I had worked for I had left behind.
