with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.

We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it doesn't matter with me now.
Because I've been to the mountaintop.

I would like to live a long life.
Longevity has its place.
But I'm not concerned about that now.

And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.
And I've looked over.
And I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you.
But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
