Setting Sun

I do not scorn the setting sun
For it to me will signal death,
And my old self will be undone
As I’m restored to Eden health.

The setting sun will presage dawn
When my new self will with Him rise,
And I’ll live life for which I’ve longed–
Familiar will be each surprise.

My wife so dear is by my side,
As radiant as she’s always been;
Together, we in Christ abide–
Made free at last from death and sin.
