MY FRIEND DEATH - Hannes Zegement Grove

MY FRIEND DEATH

Death so near death so true
My friends and family do not really like you
Angel of death with your blade wide open
You left my close ones crying and broken

Death so true death so near
You’re my friend—why you I do not fear
I see you every day my friend: angel of death
God sending you—taking God-given breath

Death people do fear and do not understand
God Himself chose you with His own hands
And His own Son out of love He did not spare that’s true
But now if you choose—everlasting life awaits you
