790. When I walk down the years

When I walk down the years
With fear,
Death embraces me.

When I walk down the years
With courage,
Life embraces me.

When I walk down the years
With surrender divine,
Light blesses me.

When I walk down the years
With Perfection supreme,
God utilises me,
God treasures me,
God immortalises me.
