GLORY BOUND I hear them singing now Angels ‘round His throne Sweetly praising the King As they call me gently home No regrets, my life was grand But I hunger for the Promised Land Heavenly choir sings so sweet Precious Savior, it’s time we meet You’ve lived in my heart for quite a while I know you have the sweetest smile With eyes so loving, gentle and warm Your caring arms shield me from harm But the thing I long most to do is present my only gift to you. The tears that I no longer need, may I use them to wash your precious feet? For all my burdens have been lain there and to dry your feet with tender care would bring my heart such wondrous pleasure. For you, Dear Jesus, my greatest treasure! So sing sweet angels, I’m coming home to take my place at the foot of the throne. Cheryl McClellan 9/30/2001 |

His Poet, Oh, no precious oil on earth could ever compare to those tears of your complete surrender my poet friend. Your request expresses such complete humbleness before your Lord and Savior. Such a beautiful thing to be doing at the foot of His throne. -Bob |

Bob, a beautiful song sung at church brought this about. It's called "The Alabaster Box" and it reminds me of Mary pouring out the oil on Jesus' feet and the disciples scolding her for the waste. She knew the importance of her gesture when His own men did not. Thanks so much for reading. Cheryl |

Excellent, Cheryl! I just hope we all have that attitude of the heart when it's time to meet our Lord. I also love "The Alabaster Box". That song always ministers to me. Thanks for sharing this with us! Traci ![]() "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." |

Traci, thanks for reading this one. As for the attitude thing, I think as we age, that attitude becomes easier to adopt. As much as I love my family and this earth, there is a joy and anticipation of leaving this world when the time comes. Unless by some wonderful happening, He comes again while we're still alive. Even now, Come Lord Jesus. Cheryl |
