Death Comes Once

Death comes once and takes our breath
And we sleep easy in that rest.
Then comes another day to rise
And meet the Judge with open eyes;
He calls us forth to give account
Of all we did with that fount
Of life that coursed our veins,
How we handled all our pains,
Whom we blessed and whom cursed,
Whom we put last and whom first.
And there we stand most naked:
No glory but in His grace,
And He removes all disgrace
As all eyes are turned to the Son
Above all and the only one
Who could carry our sins away
And deliver us into that eternal Day
When sin and shame is taken away.
