One thing in life is definite br All men will turn to dust br For short is life and finite br This lesson, learn we must. br br So when its time for us to go br What will we leave behind? br Will there be tears and empty sorrow? br Or wisdom in our words they find? br br Our names be written in their memory br Not wasted into nothingness br May people learn from our story br And learning thus, we live to bless.
