Monday's Mourning Ministry

Are You Afraid to Die?

~The Isaacs

For several weeks I played this album of The Isaacs who are from up the road from us about an hour from Knoxville, though now most of them live in Nashville where they routinely travel and frequently appear on Bill Gaither's Homecoming productions. We didn't even know about them until we attended a Gather concert here in Knoxville, and there they were, our "neighbors," world-famous yet unknown to us. Since then, I have fallen in love with their amazing harmonies, musical talents and hand-written songs. It is so rare to hear a family singing together these days, and I just love them!

The irony of this particular album is that while I was playing it over and over from my room which is right across the hall from Merry Katherine's room, I am sure she heard the songs over and over and over. Little did we know she indeed would be about to die. Did God know something we didn't when I chose to play those songs? It made me wonder, in retrospect. It is my prayer that these songs were some of the many tools God used to prepare my baby's heart to meet Him...

Are You Afraid to Die?

~The Isaacs

Are you a stranger to God,

Carried away with your pride?

Tell me sinner

Do you ever stop and think,

Are you afraid to die?

Are you afraid?

Are you unsaved?

Are you afraid to die?

Call on Him while he is near -

Moments are swift passing by.

Will you seek Him

While He still may be found?

Are you afraid to die?

Are you afraid?

Are you unsaved?

Are you afraid to die?

Are you too wicked to cry?

Would you to God's bosom fly?

Soon He's comin'

Like a thief in the night -

Are you afraid to die?

Are you afraid?

Are you unsaved?

Are you afraid to die?

Are you afraid?

Are you unsaved?

Are you afraid to die?
