The past becomes a lesson
All of them had a session with destiny
In their century they stood firm so
Here is a toast to the three that died
And to the One who is living!

First a toast to Watchman Nee
Through your readings
I learned the power of bowing my knee
As a teenager your readings
Melted over my life
Soon I would understand the knife of sacrifice
A toast to you, Watchman Nee!

Second a toast to Leonardo Da Vinci
You were the Renaissance man who
Had a wonderful romance with life
You shattered the ordinary matrix and
Produced extraordinary results
You taught me to break the shackles that live within the norm
A toast to you, Leonardo Da Vinci

Third a toast to Bobby Fischer
A man of courage who
Sparked a flame in life
Your work ethic in chess will remain a pathway
So that I can enhance my skills in life
A toast to you, Bobby Fischer

Fourth a toast to the living, Jesus Christ
You are in a class of your own
You are the Specialist and
You are the Author and finisher of my faith
No one compares to you; you know everything!
Your Government is Eternal and you can never fade
A toast to you, Jesus Christ the Greatest of All Time!
