Greetings friends, It's my pleasure to streamline my rendition congruent to this week's theme (travel) using Jim Reeve’s symphony “across the bridge”.
This harmonious melody is a depiction of remorsity and a future cyclorama by the author but in reality it's a dive into our respective lives and how it'll be impacted spiritually as we travel into forever land.
It's quite understandable that we've seen and heard of different people, even those we cherish with everything in us who have traveled to the place of eternal rest as Reeves literally said that “across the bridge there'll be no more sorrow or pain or unhappiness.
However, we're living in a world that has a dual effect on us. Irrespective of how strong one is at the moment, time will come when he'll have no strength to walk anymore but when we'll travel across the bridge of this present life of infinity, sorrow, unhappiness etc, we'll then live to stay strong forever.
In reality, we must first acknowledge the frailty in our fresh, confessing our lapses and accepting the divine power of God in setting us free from the negative effect of this present time in order to qualify for the positive panorama in eternity which was also the affirmation of Reeves in his symphonic expression.
The bridge of this Life is a clarion call everyone must cross even if one has a tangential opinion to this, we must all travel someday to a place we'll live to die no more but living eternally in a better place in the event of eternity is solely contingent upon the character we've chosen to act in response at the moment.
Although I'm not an atheist but the illusion of atheism is the worse propaganda and school of thought one could ever subscribe to. Well, no one would stand in the space of life and death as we must dance to the tune of one at a time regardless of our opinion, creed or religion.
Subsequently, we must dissipate the impression that eternity is just a hallucination and wittily accept the fact that some people have traveled to eternity and we who are alive will also travel someday to see those who've gone ahead of us. At this point, let's take a perusal over my rendition and the ensuing lyrics below. Your comments are fabulously appreciated smiles.
I have lived a life of sin in this world I'm living in
I have done forbidden things I shouldn't do
I asked a beggar along the way if he could tell me where to stay
Where I could find real happiness and love that's true
Across the bridge there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge there's no more pain
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again
Follow the footsteps of the King 'til you hear the voices ring
They'll be singing out the glory of the land
The river Jordan will be near, the sound of trumpet you will hear
And you'll behold the most precious place ever known to man
Across the bridge there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge there's no more pain
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again
Across the bridge there's no more sorrow (Across the bridge there's no more sorrow)
Across the bridge there's no more pain (Across the bridge there's no more pain)
The sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again
