Deut. 3-4

Right through this life.

Through battles and strife.

You have seen what Gods done.

As each battle you have won.

No longer to struggle and moan

As see God gives, not disown.

Now to take and possess

Promised land, that he might bless.

The vision l can now see.

It will be ours completely

Is not for me, in my time.

But those protégés of mine.

As long as they obey

All that God does say

He is so awesome and great.

Controls the whole world’s fate.

We know what that can mean.

For previously we have seen.

To live life ignoring the Lord

For he has always shown.

The amazing future l own.
