The dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it (Ecclesiastes 12:7; NIV).
When we die, we all return
To you: the God who gives us life.
We confess our sins and faults –
You forgive, and set us free.
You redeem us, heal, restore,
And crown us with your tender love.
Then we live in paradise
With you, forever – even me!
Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise” (Luke 23:43; NLT).
