Before I Leave

by Kristine Stanton © 2025

There's so much that I want to say
but don't know where to start.
There're words of love and gratitude
that I feel in my heart.

I want to share the Word of God
with all those that I meet.
I pray I can fulfill this wish
before my life's complete.

I wish to see the face of God
shine on me every day,
and find the footprints Jesus left
so I will never stray. . .

I want to travel on the path
that God wants me to see —
the righteous, narrow one He carved
for all eternity.

And. . .

Before I leave this wilderness
I want to serve my King
in all my thoughts, my words, and deeds
and all my worshipping.
