Unique is time upon the earth <br />As seen through mortal eyes <br />For man it starts at moment’s birth <br />And stops at his demise <br /> <br />Time ceases at the Lord’s command <br />At Jesus’ feet lies down <br />There’s no more flowing of the sand <br />When God receives its crown <br /> <br />Almighty God, The First & Last <br />Who made man out of slime <br />What stops Him walking in the past? <br />Or far beyond our time <br /> <br />What God has promised years ahead <br />Awaits for man to meet <br />No single word Lord Jesus said <br />Returns to see defeat <br /> <br />The One who watches all mankind <br />Each thought and deed discern <br />Can change at any time His mind <br />Then in man’s past return <br /> <br />To do there all that must be done <br />To bring His child on track <br />Did God not even stop the sun? <br />Then turn the shadow back? <br /> <br />The Lord’s not governed by the sands <br />For Him all time stands still <br />Is all not in His mighty hands? <br />To do His perfect will? <br /> <br />To God, the future’s never strange <br />The past is never gone <br />In both He still can so arrange <br />What should or not be done…<br /><br />Michael P.
