Longings of a Dying Man

And here they are
If he could plan
The longings of
A dying man

Just one more day
Of the sunrise
To gaze upon
Clear blue skies

Heart to forgive
Ask for mercy
To share the Word
Of love to be

To gather round
Beloved be
Together friends
And family

To share our joy
Make memories
Enjoy a meal
Pray faithfully

Were dying men
Each every day
Perhaps we’ll long
To live this way
