Life and Death

Life, oh Life Life, Life, LifeIn the midst of life is deathLife can be complex and complicated
In the midst of life is death…sometimes it comes suddenly, often expected, but you can never get used to it.Death has come to my family in many ways, on way too many daysIn the midst of life there is death.
Oh Life, oh deathOh death where is they victory?   Where is thy sting?You come and you kill, steal and destroyYou take away those most meaningful to usOh death, oh deathIn the midst of death, there is lifeLife on earth is not promised forever
You never know when it will end
Life, life, lifeEnjoy to the fullestFulfill your dreamsLaugh a lot, love a lotTake care of yourself
Life and death go hand in handAs Christians, we have the victoryVictory, Victory, Victory
Oh death where is thy sting?Only Life in Christ gives victory
So we have victory in life and victory in deathLife and DeathDeath and LifeLife and Death!.Victory!
