This would be the most effective method of donating to the charity.

WILLIAM MARAIS went to be with the Lord in November 2021. He was a much-loved husband, father, grandfather, mentor, apostolic leader, church planter and international bible teacher. Many of the lyrics reflect the DNA and biblical values that he instilled in so many of those who heard him teach.

It is a song that describes a time of prayer with God the Father, in our own garden of Gethsemane. Committing our way fully to God, regardless of what happens to us afterwards. Andrew wrote this song for him a few days before he went to be with his Saviour. The thought process behind it was this: It was in Gethsemane where Jesus died to himself and to his own desires, praying "...not my will, but your will be done..." (Luke 22:42).

So when he left Gethsemane, Jesus was resolute. His mind was made up. He did not need to plead with his captors, nor answer them when questioned. Having already died to his own will, he then freely died on a cross in full obedience to the Father, ransoming us all from sin. Surely the greatest reward for a believer is to live well, in full obedience to Jesus. And to one day hear those precious words for ourselves: “Well done, good and faithful servant." (Matt. 25:23). As Christians, this gives us eternal hope. When we reluctantly say goodbye to loved ones, we know that they are receiving a crown of glory set apart for them by Jesus, the One who went before us. Proceeds from any sales will go to William’s charitable causes. Released with kind permission from his family.

“I know there is a crown at the end of my cross Treasure far beyond anything I may have lost Nothing else compares when I truly count the cost There's a greater crown at the end of my cross”
