Ecclesiastes 11:7-8 

7 Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for a person to see the sun.
8 So, if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all,
but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many—all that is about to come is obscure.

Success

In climbing the ladder of success ... driving hard to assure its goal

at the expense and pain of others ... with a chance to loose your soul

The things we think that we deserve because of duties filled

are things eternity preserves ... but not according to our will

When all our deeds, thoughts and words before our Lord be known

The things that we deserve right then ... will be our very own

Unless the things that we deserve are paid for by the Blood

that flowed from the Cross ... for everlasting enough

So take what you deserve today ... and place it at God's feet

be not afraid and turn to pray ... for with Jesus success is free
