Returning

I live because Jesus died.
One day, I must die too,
and on that day I will sing in tune,
with a great many people the same as I,
Who realise that Jesus has brought us life.

And so in Life, I have to die,
To the wants of this world,
To all my pride,
To seek not my fortune,
But the fortune of others,
Through accepting the life that Jesus offers.

I must die, and he must live.
And so in life, I must give
All of me, to follow his plans,
To one day die in this foreign land,

Nothing,
In this world is worth,
Anywhere near,
To what was bought,
Through Jesus blood,
And Jesus death,
At Calvary.

Fare well my comfort,
Fare well my zone,
Let the Spirit lead me,
To where I go.

And one day,
After my life,
It has been lived,

I will reach my home.
