Which song that I’ve shared so far would you most desire to hear sung? Maybe it will be one in this post.

This song was written after the death of a loved one. Who have you said goodbye to this year?

Act Two

(Verse 1)
In this fleeting life, I seek to impart,
The truth of the gospel, etched within my heart.
Before I turn to dust, my purpose to fulfill,
Sharing the message, as time stands still.

(Chorus)
Oh, death, you’re not a sorrowful refrain,
But a gateway to eternity, where we’ll remain.
Created for more than our earthly days,
Let’s celebrate the journey, in joyous praise.

(Verse 2)
Our time here, so brief, like a passing breath,
But eternity awaits beyond this transient quest.
Though loved ones will mourn, as I bid adieu,
The joy of the eternal shall break through.

(Chorus)
Oh, death, you’re not a sorrowful refrain,
But a gateway to eternity, where we’ll remain.
Created for more than our earthly days,
Let’s celebrate the journey, in joyous praise.

(Bridge)
Earthly possessions, we leave behind,
To be divided among those who are kind.
Yet, what truly matters, beyond worldly worth,
Is sharing the story of Mary’s virgin birth.

(Verse 3)
For Jesus came to save, not as a stranger above,
But as a friend on Earth, filling our hearts with love.
He walked by our side, through joys and despair,
His grace and mercy, with us everywhere.

(Chorus)
Oh, death, you’re not a sorrowful refrain,
But a gateway to eternity, where we’ll remain.
Created for more than our earthly days,
Let’s celebrate the journey, in joyous praise.

(Outro)
So let us rejoice, in the truth we hold dear,
Spreading His message, dispelling all fear.
For death is not an end, but a glorious start,
To embrace eternity, where love fills every heart.

Do you love duets? Which one instantly comes to mind? I wrote a duet poem in my collection “52”. I imagined it as a song when I wrote it. This time I wrote “An Aussie Love Story” in the format of a song.

An Aussie Love Story

(Verse 1: Husband)
In the land down under, where the sun shines bright,
A love story unfolds, guided by His light.
As husband and wife, we walk hand in hand,
Embracing the teachings of God’s sacred command.

(Verse 2: Wife)
With hearts bound in love, we cherish each day,
United in spirit, along life’s rugged way.
As the Proverbs speak, a virtuous wife I’ll be,
Supporting my husband faithfully, joyfully.

(Chorus)
Oh, let our love be an example to see,
A reflection of God’s grace and unity.
Through thick and thin, we’ll stand side by side,
In this sacred union, our souls are tied.

(Verse 3: Husband)
Like the red earth beneath our feet, steadfast and true,
I’ll provide and protect, in all that I do.
Just as Christ loved the church, sacrificial and pure,
I’ll honor you, my love, forevermore.

(Verse 4: Wife)
In submission and respect, I’ll humbly abide,
Trusting your leadership, with God as our guide.
As the church obeys, I’ll follow your lead,
In God’s perfect plan, our love will succeed.

(Chorus)
Oh, let our love be an example to see,
A reflection of God’s grace and unity.
Through thick and thin, we’ll stand side by side,
In this sacred union, our souls are tied.

(Bridge)
Through trials and triumphs, we’ll weather life’s storm,
With prayer and devotion, our love will transform.
For love is patient, love is kind and true,
May we love one another as God loves me and you.

(Verse 5: Husband)
As the sun sets on this blessed land,
Hand in hand, we’ll walk, fulfilling God’s command.
In the beauty of love, let our hearts be intertwined,
A testimony of faith, forever redefined.

(Verse 6: Wife)
From the Great Barrier Reef to the Outback’s expanse,
Our love will grow deeper, exceeding any fleeting romance.
In God’s image we’re made, a bond that won’t sever,
Together, we’ll praise Him, now and forever.

(Chorus)
Oh, let our love be an example to see,
A reflection of God’s grace and unity.
Through thick and thin, we’ll stand side by side,
In this sacred union, our souls are tied.

(Outro)
In the land down under, our love will endure,
A testament to God’s teachings, steady and pure.
With His blessings above, we’ll thrive and strive,
As an Australian husband and wife.
