Let Our Faith Lead Us...
How often have we dreamed of feeling
a complete and lasting joy?...
Not the one that can be seen
on our faces so ridden by misery!
We have searched and never found it,
and we still wait for a wide-open door...
with that kind hand reaching out from somewhere,
but if everything else has failed:
let our faith lead us...
where others can't go;
where our struggles turn into rewards,
and doubts become radiant hopes!
Let our faith teach us how to soar fearlessly
into the boundless skies...never dared to own;
and with the boldest and most joyful heart...
we can begin that long journey to victory,
because we have struggled and fought alone
for a delusive glimpse of luck!
Let our faith lead us to the limits
of our capability and tolerance;
and our only obligation is:
to be very human and truly selfless!
