Seen Yet Unseen

(8/30/12)

What is this thing that is seen yet unseen
And people search for it all their lives
Are even willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

What is it that gives life meaning
And makes everything as beautiful as can be
Or create misery.

What is it that can bring a nation together
Or make it fall - become the biggest thing
Or even small.

What can create strength and take away despair
Yet you’ll always find it in the air
It is - LOVE, HOPE, FAITH
And can open up any gate.

LOVE - between man and woman
And of family and life.
HOPE - of things to come
When at first there was none.
FAITH -in GOD and all that he does
Which is seen and yet unseen.

The three most powerful words
Second to One
The FATHER, the SON , the HOLY GHOST.
And of this I gladly boast.
