"GOD Will Be Our Guide Even Unto Death. "

Your recent sickness had a voice! 
(Letters of William Romaine, 1714-1795)

Dear Sir,
Your recent sickness had a voice! 

It spoke, and you heard it say, 
"In the midst of life, we are in death!" 

How short is life--

and how uncertain! 

How certain, infallibly 

certain, is death!
How necessary is preparation 

for death, and how dangerous 
is the least delay.

How comforting is a well-

grounded hope of safety in 
death, and of joy beyond it! 

This is the antidote against 
the sting of death--
yes, and against 
the fear of death. 
It is an infallible cure!

Every Christian can look 

forward to death and 
judgment, with a hope 
full of glory and immortality!

"For this GOD is our GOD
for ever and ever:   HE will
be our guide even unto death."
(Psalm 48:14)
