In the Prose of Passion
If I Were to Die This Evening
If I were to die this evening
Go quietly in my sleep
I'd hope that my whole family
Would rejoice instead of weep
For my life has been fantastic
I've been blessed by God above
I know I'm very thankful
To been graced with so much love
He has blessed me with a family
Three children and a wife
I couldn't be more happy
I wouldn't trade my life
And friendships are abundant
As many as the stars
Though some are at a distance
They are close inside my heart
If my Savior comes to take me
Before I say goodbye
I hope that you'll forgive me
And I hope that you won't cry
For you know I'll be rejoicing
With the Father; Holy Ghost
I'll be feasting at the table
With my Savior as the Host
