The rest of my days
May they be long
Filled full of praise
Enriched by song

May they be long
I'll lift up my voice
Enriched by song
I've made my choice

I'll lift up my voice
My pilgrim path trod
I've made my choice
I'll serve my GOD

My pilgrim path trod
Filled full of praise
I'll serve my GOD
The rest of my days

How happy and uplifting this is! I also hope the rest of your days are long and like a song. I hope everyone's days are like this.
With Jesus we've got a good start.

Hi Dennis!
It's great to see you in spiritual again! This poem is fabulous! I especially like the last line "I'll serve my GOD the rest of my days". Very well done!

Thanks for all you kind comments.

Every heart,
Must sing a song,
But it need not be solo,
Come sing along,

My pilgrim path trod,
Filled full of praise
I'll serve my GOD
The rest of my days!

Did I hear anyone say AMEN?
Thanks again,  Dennis :^)

Yes Brother,
I'll AMEN it- and say that a life so well attuned unto the Father's Praise is a Hymn of praise- the most beautiful kind. A Praise the Lord also seem appropriate here too!  
      Love,  David

Amen Dennis, I'm singing the same song. I loved this piece. Without Him, what would we do? He is everything.  Blessings, Marcy
