/Do Not Go Alone
If death should beckon me With outstretched hand, I shall not be afraid
For though the path I do not know. ..
I take death's hand withoutfear For He who safely brought me here
Will always take me safely back, And though in many things I lack. ..
He will not let me go alone Into the "Valley th a t's Unknown, " So I reach out and take D eath's hand Andjourney to the "Promised Land. "
