Death Will Come to Us All

Death came to Hugh
As it came to Matthew
And will come to one and all.
And while caught up in the thrall
Of life’s actions and speculations,
Best to focus upon relations,
Especially with the Maker
Rather than the Taker.
O, the devil would have us fall
For those “blessings” that come to all,
Those delights of the life
Which with sweetness are rife,
But turn out most sourly.
Time is short and we must abort
Any attraction for “this world”
Away from our constant obsession
With our One True Possession,
Our Lord whom we hold dear
And through whom we have no fear.

Press on, family! Our Lord reigns – victorious over death.
Hugh trusted Him and, joining Matthew, lives evermore, victoriously.
