193 Faith
193.
Faith
Oh God, for I'm someone under authority
Having lords and soldiers over me
I shall put my faith on them and Thee
Eventhough I am not worthy of care
For I am a person so simple and bare
Almost having nothing precious to share
I'm so lowly, the heavens are far
Can't even afford to buy a toy car
To move up and move on is easy to bar
Only in dreams I can reach so high
It's there where I have seen myself fly
Pillows of clouds they don't deny
But here in real life situation
People experience utter desperation
Others even die out of negation
Yet however dark is the night
If in our hearts we have this might
We shall perceive the saving light
Oh God, I should have this faith within me
Though of Thy grace I'm not so worthy
I just continue to pray to Thee.
