Using Hebrews twelve verse two on this Good Friday
“Death must precede resurrection” Bernard Lee did say
Jesus was the first born of the dead and the resurrection
He rose to glory as He embraced death without objection
“Death is great mercy” Bernard went on to strongly state
As it shortens our life of sin and sets our focus straight
To the “law of the grain of wheat” Mr Lee also did refer
Grain must die to produce fruit, like us we should infer
In some part of our life, we will probably be asked to die
So that we can do our duty and God we will then glorify
God intends to give us holiness, not mere happiness
So we can fulfil His destiny for out lives, nothing less
Bernard shared “death experiences” numbering three
From these, Moses, Joseph, and Ezekiel did not flee
Moses was in exile forty years; Jospeh became a slave
When they became leaders, they know how to behave
God has a use for us, no matter what we have done
For no matter what our age, His plans can really stun
God wants to resurrect that which is in a way dead
To do things which will serve to glorify Him instead
As Jesus did, death experiences we should embrace
Knowing God prepares us for challenges we will face
We must repent of our sin and to God serve faithfully
Letting “not our will but His will be done” be the key
