My name is Chris Thomas. A fortunate husband, a father of three and Dad to five, I’m an advocate of foster care as an implication of the gospel. I’m also a pastor at Raymond Terrace Community Church, a regional church based in the Hunter Valley, Australia. I mostly write about the gospel and how it informs both work and rest.

Breath

Breath

O fleeting breath of fading flower
Of drowning men in sinking ship
Fast we approach the unknown hour
Vain we cling with weakening grip

Ours to hold but for a while
Young laughter fades to heavy sigh
The clouding mist sight to defile
Hopes laid low that once were high

But hope lives on beyond the veil
Rest in one who once knew death
The appointed moment will exhale
Then glory comes with next breath
