John Thomas Kimble

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 Death’s hand and journey to the Promised Land.
~Unknown.
