I DO NOT GO ALONE If Death should beckon 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 Deaths Hand without a Fear, For He who safely brought me here Will also take me safely back, And though in many things I lack, He will not let me go alone Into the "VALLEY THAT S UNKNOWN, So I reach out and take Deaths Hand And journey to the "PROMISED LAND!"
