If I Go First

Triolet, short, about a love of 50 years

If I Go First

 

If I go first and you remain

At Jesus' feet I'll wait for thee

I'll wait for you on this high plane

If I go first and you remain

I'll watch for you soon to attain

A Christ like body and be free

If I go first and you remain

At Jesus' feet I'll wait for thee

[Wolf's Dark Song]

A wonderful poem and it speaks loudly of love. What could be more loving then reassuring someone you will be waiting for them when they make this journey.
