Time again

Well my dear it's about that time again. That time of the year that makes me wonder how you've been and what you've been up to.....
I've often thought what I would give to be able to have a chat over a cuppa one more time. So much time has passed but it feels like yesterday when I sat by your bedside in hospital and we laughed about the little things in life.....
I'm not a religious man but this made me think of you and the kind and giving woman that you were.

So on this very special day let me leave you with a message from my heart....

Your name may not appear down here,
In this world's hall of fame
You may be so unknown
Few even know your name

Fame and fortune pass you by
And are given to a few
But if you love and serve the Lord 
Then there is good news for you,

This Hall of fame is only good
As long as time shall be
But keep in mind God's Hall of fame
Is for eternity!

To have your name inscribed up there
Is greater yes by far
Than all the Halls of Fame down here
And every man made star.

This crowd on earth they soon forget
The heroes of the past
They cheer like mad until you fall
And that's how long you last


But God he never does forget,
And in His Hall of Fame,
By just believing in his Son,
Inscribed you'll find your name

I tell you friend I wouldn't trade
My name however small
That's written there beyond the stars
In that celestial hall

For every famous name on earth
Or glory that they share;
I'd rather be unknown here
And have made my name up there.


God bless my dear, I'll have a drink for you because i know how it would make you roll your eyes....
Happy birthday.
