An Ode to My Friend Rob

Who be that one with skillful hands

of humbled heart and mind

oh he be Rob the kinder one

my friend with ties that bind


With his accord through thick and thin

'pon marching on earth's sod

while finding place in Kingdom roll

resisting patron's laud


Of engines built and cycles road

of air conditioned homes

regardless of the challenge there

Rob's purpose never roamed


Who taught the youths both young and old

the ways of God above

and watched their lives produce the fruit

of scripture's binding love


And who thus more the family man

did pray and and put forth cause

whose wisdom cast with loving care

n'er seeking their applause


Now heaven's door thou entered there

and oh the sights you see

Our Savior Jesus face to face

has cast His eyes on thee


And sometime soon I'll meet you there

when my time comes to pass

and Rob and I will meet again

and join the everlast


And there my friend we'll rest in Him

who called both you and me

and run and ride those streets of gold

that thus awaited thee
