If I Should Die Tomorrow

by Janet Martin © 2009

If I should die tomorrow, what would I do today?
How would I spend my final hours before I'm called away?
Would I run around in panic, to set some wrongs a-right?
Would I get my 'house in order' and stay up half the night?
Would I call a long-lost brother or visit all my friends?
Would I go to see my mother, quickly tie up some loose ends?
Would I make a list of things to do or would I toss it out?
Would I review accomplishments or failures and my doubts?
Would I visit the sick and lonely or would I get down on my knees?
Make sorrowful confessions, for grace and mercy plead?
Would I look back upon my life with joy or with regret?
Would I try to remember or try hard to forget?
Would I write a lengthy letter to read when I am gone?
Or would I get up this morning and simply carry on?
Believing in God's promises, contented in His plan,
Because each day I know I try to do the best I can
