I Believe

As search we must while on this earth For love and truth, we’ll bathe in hurt The answers lie within ourselves If time we take therein to delve For under every rock you’ll find me Let not the chains of science bind thee And if you take the time to look He’s there in every written book For in this life we live our Hell I’ve seen my peers in torture dwell The nature of my fellow man Is to strive to do the best he can No I’m not needing any proof No miracles nor jaded truth After all I’ve read and all I’ve seen The truth I feel remains unseen And if tomorrow’ll be my end To Gods request and will I’ll bend I’ll go with grace and dignity I know He’s waiting there for me So search not for what can’t be seen As man demands a truth to glean Look instead inside your heart In all you’ve known, right from the start Just know that love is in your grasp As death expels it’s final gasp That life is here and for the living That humankind shall be forgiven All I’ve come to realise Is there within my childrens eyes No need for Bibles nor Dead Sea Scrolls The love of love’s within the soul We’ll walk with loved ones as before In playful dreams, friends by the score While watched with love from all around Blessed by His light on Hallowed Ground So bless us Lord our souls to keep As death it lays us down to sleep A purer soul shall surely find That Heavens Gates admit the blind
