WHEN DARKNESS COMES FOR ME

When darkness comes for me
(or will it be the light?)
Will I follow graciously
or wage a gallant fight?

When darkness comes for me
will there be time to say good-bye?
Time for those I love
to sit. . . and hug. . . and cry?

When darkness comes for me
will wings of faith surround me,
Enough to remember this journey ends
with his loving arms around me?
