Oh death when you come to knock on my door, what will i give you?
i give you my breath my heart my soul and my flesh and sinew
i give you fond memories of joy and laughter
memories of pain yet still i love long after
i give you back all the blessings i received
i give you back my borrowed life well lived
i give you every moment every smile
all the wonders i encountered in my life’s travel every mile
i surrender all my riches and all my loves
to your infinite hand that reaches from above
Oh death you have no power over me
for i know that love is larger than thee!
