Eternal Life for Each One Birthed

How fleeting is the life we live
When all we see is life on earth
And fail to see to all He gives
Eternal life for each one birthed.

Our life on earth an ante-room
Where we’re made fit to live with Him,
And hope removes the circling gloom
When all earth seen as Bethlehem.

For into stable He calls all,
And we step in eternity;
An open gate in Garden wall
Makes all our eastern lands sin-free.

Then as we travel o’er our time
In every minute heaven see,
As woven into heaven’s rhyme
Is who each one is meant to be.
