Wisdom from the Urn, figuritively speaking
The Heart of Poetry
: It doesn't matter by Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens

I feel a little confined Lord
Sitting in this thing they call an Urn

But 'glory be' it doesn't matter, as my
Soul to you has been returned

Ashes to ashes, or, dust to dust
We are familiar with the thought

And once you really 'get it down'
You'll understand what the Savior's blood bought

He didn't die for bodies, for that temple
Is just the spirit's dwelling place

But for our soul's salvation , that we
May one day see His face

So whether I be buried or
In an urn be poured

His name I'll praise forever
For it's to Him I've been restored

Author Notes
There are many questions concerning cremation versus burial. As our culture changes and financial cost surrounding funerals and memorials rise drastically, hopefully these 'thoughts' from the urn might be helpful if you are struggling with someone's recent cremation.
