WHAT REALLY MATTERS

Ujamaa Christian Poetry

Life's like a vapor that disappears with the wind
It has just started and you're already at the end
Life goes by much faster than you think
Yet compared to all eternity it's merely a wink
When you're still young, time cannot go too fast
But in getting older, you're looking at the past

It really doesn't matter how far you're on your way
As long as you can see the Lighthouse' beaming ray
And while the sea of life is still roaring loud
You'll hear the captain of your ship shout
"Keep faith and courage, the end is near
Soon you'll dock at heaven's mere!"
So, with the wind of faith in your sails
You'll move forward withstanding the gales
Now, with the Lighthouse as your guide
You'll reach heaven's shore after a stormy night
Then you'll walk with your Captain hand in hand
With Jesus to lead you to the Promised Land
