RIPPLES ON A POND










Like ripples on a pond
That reach the sandy shore
I look at life's short day
When time will be no more.

The weight of earthly store
We spend our lives to gain
So quickly falls apart
Our search seems all in vain.

But when we share our love
Through acts of kindness sown
Like ripples on a pond
Life's loving deeds are shown.

So take another look
Across the swelling tide
And help a wounded soul
To reach the other side.

Life has no greater prize
Than helping others know
The touch of Jesus' love
Has helped them here below.
--B. Pent
