What doth it profit a man if he gains the whole world,
And suffers the loss of all he has and his eternal soul.
A man who lives not for tomorrow, but only for today
Where life is just eat, drink and be merry, so why pray.
His wealth can buy him power, fame and mistresses,
And yet cannot stop a day more, the ageing processes
And soon when Dr Death comes a knocking at the door,
Alas, poor man, he will not make it to a hundred and four.
What doth it profit a man even if he has led a happy life,
A large family filled with happy children and a loving wife.
For by three scores and ten, it's time to prepare for the end
For we can't live forever, time to say goodbye soon my friend
So what doth it profit a man, if he has led a life, good or bad
Yet does not know where his soul is going, isn't that very sad
So my beloved friends, with all your money, power and fame,
Did it profit you at all, if you got it all through greed and shame
So after you're gone forever, we may not remember your name

He is our Lord and Saviour
Our Lord JESUS brought this message of Hope
more than 2000 years ago.
He who holds Tomorrow, knows what He has planned for us Today.
He who holds the Future, was willing to forgive us for our transgressions in the Past.
Why hold on to the Past, when the Future looks more promising and assured.
Have you not heard? Have you not seen? Do you not believe?
That He came to redeem us.
He who was without sins, was willing to take away our sins.
By His Death on the Cross, we were set free from guilt and condemnation.
There is no greater Love than this, than when a friend
unconditionally and self sacrificially lays down His life
for His beloved friends, in order that they may have eternal life.
And because He lives - We live.
How can we not love this man called JESUS.
He came into the world as IMMANUEL -
which means "God with us".
So now we remember every Easter Sunday,
with joy and gladness.
For He has conquered death, and we have received from
him the Bread of Life and of Living Water.
And so we lift up our lips and hearts in praise of Him
"Thank you JESUS." Hallelilah!
All Glory be to Him, our Lord and Saviour.
For he was in the beginning, is now,
and forever and ever will be.
AMEN!
