It won’t matter what we worshipped
Since all has come to its demise;
The only thing that matters
Is what is precious in God’s eyes.
And it won’t matter what we owned
Since many times it did own us,
But rather what our heart encompassed
And in Whom we placed our trust.
Our friends’ opinions will not matter
Since many times weren’t verified,
And sometimes with hidden motives
Perhaps with jealousy or lies.
And it really will not matter
If technology reached the sky,
Or whether planets were inhabited…
Now that we have died.
But the finish line will matter
And whether our marathon was true,
As we raced to the author of our faith
And were thoroughly renewed.
Our struggles will not matter –
And we’ve had our share of same,
Since this new chapter and beginning
Will bring glory to His name.
And when the time will come
All our knowledge is stripped bare,
As our naked soul before Him stands
Without the worldly cares.
It won’t matter how rich or poor
In the end we really are,
But whether Jesus Christ was worshipped
From the heart – not from afar.
