“…..WILL I SEE YOU TODAY…..?

                   Will I See You Today?

Will I see you today? … My Lord said to me.

Will I see you today, as the morning sun,

…..rises to light the sea? 

Will you come to me dressed in silver and gold? 

Or come as you were, when I first made your soul? 

Will I see you today, clothed in sin and shame? 

Or as you were, when I died in your name? 

I made you in My Image, so you would look as I do,

Yet… you sometimes lived as a foreigner,

….far from my view

The path before you, I planned, for your journey,

You varied but a little, chasing opportunity.

As your earthly life approaches the end,

Repent now… and taste the loss… of your sin!

And fear not, my child…as my Mercy prevails,

For you “believed” that I died for your sins,

Your Soul has been purified, and

… The Heavens rejoice…

And, the Angels sing,

You were once lost, but now re-named.

Precious lamb of mine, “I will see you today,”

I am calling you home, as your days are done

For I am your Father… and you are my Son.
