When Glory Beckons

When glory beckons With no regrets On this day of sorrow The course now set End of life converges A sweet release Away from turmoil To find peace Death now approaching Where is victory? At one with the earth For all eternity Pride now forgotten Fighting for life strength decreasing Twisting the knife Now to leave - departure of the soul With relief - eternity unfolds Do not be sad - the pulse now gone The war of life continuous - this battle now is won Mourn no more - reaching eternal rest Remember with no sadness - the final request Now to leave - departure of the soul With relief - eternity unfolds
