I was born to this world and clothed by my parents, but I was clothed in righteousness when I was reborn by accepting Jesus. My earthly deeds had meaning, but when I leave this world and meet my Savior face to face, I will take nothing with me.
Naked
Naked, I came in birth.
Naked, I died to this world,
What was my worth?
What was seen in between?
Were my deeds full or lean?
What did others glean?
Hopefully, a life washed clean!
Naked I came.
Naked I left.
What was my gain?
What did I leave undone?
What was my sum?
How was my life’s run?
Hopefully, others saw my love for the Son!
Naked I was born.
Naked I died.
Coming quickly is my reward?
I will be clothed and restored.
I will be adorned;
Made one with my Lord.
Mary Crisp Jameson 6/6/2025
“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12
