I Do Not Go Alone 
If death should beacon me, with outstretched hand, And whisper softly of "an unknown land" 
I shall not be afraid to go for though the path I do not know I take death's hand without a fear For He who safely brought me here 
Will also take me safely back and though in many ways I lack, He will not let me go alone 
Into the "Valley that's unknown"... So I reach out and take death's hand And journey to the "Promised land."
