My Grandpa Was a Godly Man

 

My Grandpa Was a Godly Man

My Grandpa was a godly man
And though he wasn’t perfect
He sought to follow God’s plan;
His conduct was circumspect.
His dear wife was his first love,
After His Savior of course,
And now he’s in heav’n above
Serving with every resource.
I know he wants you to know
Not to mourn for him today,
But God’s love to others show
Help them to the Narrow Way.
Live your life to honor God
Laying up treasure above;
And when you reach heav’nly sod
Receive the joy of God’s love!
You might struggle in the way
Your flesh may give into sin-
But heed what the Proverbs say,
“The just man will rise again!”
Grandpa lived an example
Mercy was shown for mistakes
What God showed was a sample
For His own He undertakes!
