In Death - In Christ

In death there is no first,
In death there is no second,
In death there is no third,
Death doesn't distinguish between classes.

In death there is no black,
In death there is no white,
In death there is no olive,
Death doesn't distinguish between skin colour.

In death there is no man
In death there is no woman
In death there is no children
Death doesn't distinguish between male or female
Young or old

Death, the great enemy, isn't fussy
About who it takes.
When your time has come,
You will have no choice!

Rich or poor,
Fat or thin,
Black or white
Woman or man
We are all born
To live, then die!

In Christ there is no first,
In Christ there is no second, 
In Christ there is no third,
Christ doesn't distinguish between the classes

In Christ there is no black,
In Christ there is no white,
In Christ there is no olive,
Christ doesn't distinguish between skin colour

In Christ there is no man
In Christ there is no woman
In Christ there is no children
Christ doesn't distinguish between male or female
Young or old

Christ, the Creator, Sustainer of all
Came to save those who call,
On His name for forgiveness true
Could He be calling YOU?

Rich or poor
Fat or thin
Black or white
Woman or man
We can live for Christ
Eternally with Him

I was watching a YouTube video which was dedicated to those who died on the titanic and as I watched it, I thought - in life, class, skin colour etc mattered, but in death, they were all equal! Class, rank, skin colour etc it didn't matter when the time came for them to expire!
