Death (Deathbed)

If we have not walked closely with God in this world, we may well be afraid to appear before Him in the next. If we have not maintained a constant converse with Jesus our Savior, by holy exercises of faith and hope, it is no wonder if we are not so ready with cheerfulness and joy to resign our departing spirits into His hand. It is possible we may have a right to the inheritance of Heaven, having had some sight of it by faith as revealed in the Gospel, having in the main chosen it for our portion, and set our feet in the path of holiness that leads to it; but we have so often wandered out of the way that in this awful and solemn hour, we shall be in doubt, wither we shall be received at the gates, and enter into the city.

The World To Come - Isaac Watts
